12-7 Defining an Industry It can be difficult to define an industry –North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) attempts to define industry groups with a four or five digit code: The first two digits broadly define the industry group: NAIC code 23 = construction The last two or three digits define the industry more narrowly

12-8 Sensitivity to Business Cycle Factors affecting sensitivity of earnings to business cycles –Sensitivity of sales of the firm’s product to the business cycles –Fixed costs and leverage Fixed costs are costs that do not vary with the level of production. Fixed costs contribute to higher profitability when sales are high, but will result in lower profitability when sales are lower.
