Blazer chemical produces and sells an ice-melting granular used on roadways and sidewalks in winter. it annually produces and sells about 100 tons of its granular. in its nine-year history, the company has never reported a net loss. however, because of this year's unusually mild winter, projected demand for its product is only 60 tons. based on its predicted production and sales of 60 tons, the company projects the following income statement (under absorption costing). its product cost information follows and consists mainly of fixed cost because of its automated production process requiring expensive equipment selling and administrative expenses consist of variable selling and administrative expenses of $310 per ton and fixed selling and administrative expenses of $300,000 per year. the company's president is concerned about the adverse reaction from its creditors and shareholders if the projected net loss is reported. the operations manager mentions that since the company has large storage capacity, it can report a net income by keeping its production at the usual 100-ton level even though it expects to sell only 60 tons. the president was puzzled by the suggestion that the company can report income by producing more without increasing sales. can the company report a net income by increasing production to 100 tons and storing the excess production in inventory? complete the following income statement (using absorption costing) based on production of 100 tons and sales of 60 tons.

Which of the following statements is correct? large corporations are taxed more favorably than sole proprietorships. corporate stockholders are exposed to unlimited liability. due to limited liability, unlimited lives, and ease of ownership transfer, the vast majority of u.s. businesses (in terms of number of businesses) are organized as corporations. most businesses (by number and total dollar sales) are organized as partnerships or proprietorships because it is easier to set up and operate in one of these forms rather than as a corporation. however, if the business gets very large, it becomes advantageous to convert to a corporation, mainly because corporations have important tax advantages over proprietorships and partnerships. most business (measured by dollar sales) is conducted by corporations in spite of large corporations’ often less favorable tax treatment, due to legal considerations related to ownership transfers and limited liability.
