Question #: 12
Topic #: 1

Grum Corp., a publicly-owned corporation, is subject to the requirements for segment reporting. In its income statement for the year ended December 31, 1991, Grum reported revenues of $50,000,000, operating expenses of $47,000,000, and net income of $3,000,000. Operating expenses include payroll costs of $ 15,000,000. Grum's combined identifiable assets of all industry segments at December 31, 1991, were $40,000,000.

In its 1991 financial statements, Grum should disclose major customer data if sales to any single customer amount to at least:

A$300,000

B$1,500,000

C$4,000,000

D$5,000,000

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

Choice 'd' is correct. $5,000,000 (10% x $50,000,000 revenue). If revenue from a single external customer is 10% or more of total revenue, then the company should disclose this fact, the total amount of revenue from the customer, and the segment or segments reporting the revenues. The identity of the customer need not be disclosed.

I'm a bit confused by this question. I'm not sure how using music to create emotion or simplifying the message would be considered themes that help a communication campaign. I'll have to review my notes on this topic.
