A、 sales risk.

B 、operating risk.

C、 business risk.

B、 the same.

C、 higher.

View answer resolution

【Answer to question 1】A

【analysis】

A is correct. Sales risk is associated with uncertainty with respect to total revenue, which, in turn, depends on price and units sold.

B is incorrect. Operating risk is the risk attributed to the operating cost structure. A company with a greater proportion of fixed costs in its cost structure has greater operating risk.

C is incorrect. Business risk is risk associated with operating earnings and this risk is the combination of sales risk and operating risk.

【Answer to question 2】B

【analysis】

B is correct. When DFL = Operating income/Net income = 1.00, Operating income = Net income, meaning the fixed cost of debt is zero. The breakeven point is: Fixed costs + Fixed cost of debt/Contribution margin. Because the fixed cost of debt is zero, the company’s breakeven point becomes Fixed costs/Contribution margin, which is the same as the operating breakeven point.

A is incorrect because the breakeven point is equal to the operating breakeven point when DFL = 1.00.

C is incorrect because the breakeven point is equal to the operating breakeven point when DFL = 1.00

成功=时间+方法，自制力是这个等式的保障。世上无天才，高手都是来自刻苦的练习。而人们经常只看到“牛人”闪耀的成绩，其成绩背后无比寂寞的勤奋。小编相信，每天都在勤奋练习，即使是一点点的进步，大家一定可以成为人人称赞的“牛人”。更多CFA考试资讯，点击了解>
