Economics can be classified into two (2) categories, namely;
1. Macroeconomics can be defined as the study of behaviors, performance and factors that affect the entire economy. Hence, it focuses on aggregate phenomena such as price level, economic growth, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), inflation, unemployment and national income levels with respect to the central bank, demand or supply shocks, government policies, aggregate spending and savings.
2. Microeconomics can be defined as the study of the effect of price and quantity levels through interactions between individual buyers and sellers in various markets.

Explanation:
Margin of safety is the sales value at which the business is safe from making loss. It measures the profit after the break-even point. The sales over the break-even point is considered as the margin of safety.
Margin of safety = Actual Sales - Break-even point = 12,500 units - 11,250 units = 1250 units
Percentage of margin of safety to sales = Margin of safety / Actual sales
Percentage of margin of safety to sales = 1,250 / 12,500
Percentage of margin of safety to sales = 0.10
Percentage of margin of safety to sales = 10%

Acid test ratio = 0.13:1
Acid test ratio = 0.13 times
