At Major's Department store

Contribution to overhead

= 30,400

Contribution to Overhead as a percentage of sales

= {Contribution to overhead / Sales} * 100

= {30,400 / 194,000} * 100

= 15.67

At Macy's men's department store

Contribution to overhead

= Sales - Cost of goods sold - direct expenses

= 194,000 - 134,500 - 28,001

= 31,499

Contribution to Overhead as a percentage of sales

= {Contribution to overhead / Sales} * 100

= {31,499 / 194,000} * 100
