Answer:Margin of safety expressed in dollars=$88,000

Margin of safety  as a percentage of sales =22%

Explanation:

Margin of Safety is the sales greater the break-even point  that helps  businesses gauge and prevent a loss. A Higher Margin of Safety is preferred as it limits the risk of businesses  making loss

Margin of safety expressed in dollars= Total actual sales - break-even point of sales

$400,000 - $312,000

=$88,000

Margin of safety  as a percentage of sales =Margin of safety/ Actual sales  x 100

$88,000/ $400,000 x 100

0.22 x 100

= 22%

The inverse demand function: P = 25 − 3Q (in cents)

Cost of producing = C(Q) = 1 + 4Q (in cents)

By charging the optimal block price, the firm produce at a point where

Price = Marginal Cost (MC)

MC = 4

25 − 3Q = 4

Q = 7

Consumer Surplus = Profit of charging the optimal block price=0.5 × (y-intercept of the demand curve -MC) × Q
