Respuesta :

Answer:

$1, 161,875

Explanation:

The margin of safety is the difference between the expected profits and the break-even point. It can be expressed either in units or dollars.  Obtaining the margin of safety is therefore expected profit- break-even point.

For Morganti Corporation,

Sales =40,900 units

Break-even sales =  31,605 units

Margins of safety units = 40,900 - 31605 = 9,295 units

Margin of safety in dollars = 9295 x selling price

= $9295 x $125

= $1, 161,875
