What is Margin of Safety?

I asked some instructors and replied in definition of MOS, FIFO, and WA…I know what those are. but I just dont know how to break this MC that mixed with Inventory + MOS…any hints or help are greatly appreciated!

That is not the entire question, correct? I am pretty sure that Margin of Safety is the amount of revenues (or units sold) that are in excess of your break even point. You don't have adequate information to determine margin of safety.

I have to agree with Minimorty- the margin of safety in dollars is Total Sales – Break Even Sales= Margin of Safety in $

I could help you if I had all the information.

I wanted second opinion on this MC. I really appreciated for your responses!
