Posted by Kerry on May 07, 2022 at 04:37 PM

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.

Cott Co.'s four business segments have revenues and identifiable assets expressed as percentages of Cott's total revenues and total assets as follows:

Which of these business segments are deemed to be reportable segments?

Suggested Answer: D

Rule: A segment must be at least 10% of:

1. Combined revenues (whether intersegment or unaffiliated customers), or

2. Operating income (of all segments not having an operating loss), or

3. Identifiable assets.

Choice 'd' is correct. Ebon, Fair, Gel, and Hak, since all four companies meet at least one of the criteria.

Fair and Gel should be in there too, right?

Ebon only seems too limited for a reportable segment.

Surprised that Hak isn't considered reportable!

I think all four segments should be included.

Ebon and Fair are definitely reportable.

I'm a bit confused by this one. Why would the use of apex:form be discouraged in CCRZ pages? I'll have to read through the options carefully to try to understand the reasoning.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure on this one. I know the Statistics tab has some reporting features, but I can't recall if that's where the timecharts and bar charts are. I'll have to think this through carefully.
