Answer:

margin of safety ratio is 7.5%

Explanation:

sales made/budgeted sales = $2000000

variable cost = $1100000

fixed costs = $750000

Total cost incurred = variable cost + fixed cost

                               = $1100000 + $750000

                               = $1850000

margin of safety = (sales made/budgeted sales) - (the break-even point)

Break-even point is the point where sales made is equal to total cost incurred

The break-even point is = $1850000 which is contained inside the sales made i.e the point where cost incurred meets sales made

while the margin of safety is = the sales made - the break even point

                                                = $2000000 - $1850000

                                                = $150000

Margin of safety ratio is calculated as = margin of safety / total sales * 100

the margin of safety ratio  = 150000/2000000 * 100

                                              = 0.075 * 100 = 7.5%

The break even point would be 1850000, and as Mercantile made 2000000, the margin of safety would be 150000.

LiRa [457]

C. Ask customers to respond to a brief survey of their attitudes regarding insurance.

The "foot in the door" phenomenon is the tendency for people to agree to a large request if they have already previously agreed to a smaller/easier request. In this case, because the salesman has already convinced the customer to sit down and talk to him, they will be more likely to agree to do more by taking the survey.

Since they are essentially serving the same purpose as a check, they are not listed as a money source. </span>
