Let R be a commutative ring with identity. We continue our study of factorization in commutative rings with zero divisors. In Section 2 we consider inert extensions and atomicity. In Section 3 we characterize the atomic rings in which almost all atoms are prime. In Section 4 we investigate bounded factorization rings (BFR's) and U-BFR's, and in Section 5 we study finite factorization rings (FFR's).
