Respuesta :

Answer:

a. 30%

b. $335,000

Explanation:

a. The computation of the contribution margin ratio is shown below:

Contribution margin ratio = (Contribution margin) ÷ (Sales) × 100

where,

Contribution margin  = Sales - Variable cost

= $3,200,000 -  $2,240,000

= $960,000

And, the sales is $3,200,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

So, the Contribution margin ratio = ( $960,000) ÷ ($3,200,000 ) × 100 = 30%

b. The computation of the income from operations is shown below:

= Contribution margin - fixed cost

= $2,100,000 × 35% - $400,000

= $735,000 - $400,000

= $335,000

The contribution margin ratio is 30% and the income from operations is 335,000.

What are the contribution margin and income from operations?

a. The contribution margin ratio is calculated as follows:

[tex]\text{Contribution margin ratio} = \frac{(\text{Contribution margin})}{(\text{sales})} \text{ x } 100[/tex]

where,

[tex]\text{Contribution margin = Sales - Variable cost}[/tex]

[tex]= 3,200,000 - 2,240,000\\\\= 960,000\\\\\text{And, the sales is} 3,200,000\\\text{Now put these values to the above formula}\\[/tex]

[tex]\text{So the Contribution margin ratio}= \frac{960,000}{3,200,000} {\text{ x }100} = 30[/tex]

b. The income from operations is calculated as follows:

[tex]= \text{Contribution margin - fixed cost}\\= 2,100,000 \text{ x } 0.35 - 400,000\\= $735,000 - $400,000\\= $335,000[/tex]
