The correct answer is A.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Mcmurtry Corporation sells a product for $110 per unit. The product's current sales are 12,200 units and its break-even sales are 10,614 units.
<u>The margin of safety is the number of units or amount of dollars that provide genuine profit to the company. It is the "margin" that gives room to try new strategies</u>.
It is calculated using the following formula:
Margin of safety ratio= (current sales level - break-even point)/current sales level
Margin of safety ratio= (12,200 - 10,614) / 12,200
Margin of safety ratio= 0.13=13%

(b) 2.25
(c) 12.5%

(b) 2.25= 180/(8x10)
(c) Percentage change is given by (2.25-2)/2=.125
Answer:
ending work in process and the cost of units transferred out.
