What is the company%u2019s contribution margin (CM) ratio? (Omit the "%" sign in your response.)

Explanation / Answer

1.What is the company contribution margin (CM) ratio? (Omit the "%" sign in your response.)


Contribution margin ratio = Total COnt/Total Sales

= (281000-227610)/281000 = 19.00%


2.Estimate the change in the company net operating income if it were to increase its total sales by $1,400. (Omit the "$" sign in your response.)


Increase in Net Income = CM Ratio *Increase in Sales

= 19%*1400 = $266.00



Estimated change in net operating income $266.00
