A market
share objective is the reason they encountered losses. Market share often pursues by companies when industry sales are relatively
flat or declining. Although increased market share is a primary goal of some
firms, others see it as a means to other ends: increasing sales and profits.
Answer:
AFS 2004 market price decline exceeded 2005 market price recovery
No No
The security cannot be classified as available-for-sale because the unrealized gains and losses are recognized in the Income Statement. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are recognized in owners' equity, not earnings.
The second part of the question is somewhat ambiguous. The 2004 price decline could exceed or be exceeded by the 2005 price recovery. The loss in the first year is not related in amount and does not constrain the realized gain in the second year.
The way to answer the question is to read the right column heading as implying that the earlier price decline must exceed the later price recovery. With that interpretation, the correct answer is no.
For example, assume a cost of $10 and a market value of $4 at the end of the first year. An unrealized loss of $6 is recognized in earnings. During the second year, the security is sold for $12. A realized gain of $8 is recognized-the increase in the market value from the end of the first year to the sale in the second year. Thus, the market decline in the first year did not exceed the recovery in year two. (It could have exceeded the recovery in year two but there is no requirement that it must.)

Thus, at 0 margin of safety the company basically is at no profit no loss situation, that is break even.
Answer:
the answer is 6
Explanation:
In this case we would need to have a combination of each plant with each customer. So the variable would be in this way (3C X 2P)
Customer1 Customer2 Customer3
Plant1 P1C1 P1C2 P1C3
Plant2 P2C1 P2C2 P2C3
Once you have this you can calculate the best combination to minimize the cost of shipping
