The self correcting mechanism is a automatic process in which the aggregate market eliminates an inflationary gap created by a short-run equilibrium that is greater than full employment through increases in wages and other resource prices.
If sales volume increases and all other factors remain constant, then the Margin of safety will increase
Explanation:
The margin for safety (MOS) is described as an overall excess of current or expected revenue, expressed either in terms of currency or in units, or as a percentage of total revenues.
One of the main ways to increase the safety margin is through increasing the gross value per unit (if business conditions are favourable) and by reducing the variable cost per unit of the good. This can be accomplished by rising selling costs.
Answer: d. $240,400
Explanation:
To calculate the Cost of Goods sold for the year we simply add the Opening Balance of Finished goods to the Cost of Goods for the year and then subtract the Finished goods balance at year end (ending).
That would be,
= 233,000 + 31,600 - 24,200
= $240,400
$240,400 is the Cost of Goods sold for the year so Option D is correct.
