Mcdonalds had sales revenues of 30 million USD in 2019. Its food ingredient is 15 million USD. Its wage cost is 5 million USD, it paid 3 million USD in rent, 2 million USD in interest. What was its contribution (value-added) for 2019? How much profit did the owners of McDonalds make?
In this question,
Sales = $30
Food ingredients = $15
Wage cost =$5
Rent = $3
Interest =$2
Then,
Contribution = Total sale - variable cost
According to this question,
Food ingredients of $15 is determined as variable cost and other expenses are fixed cost
Then, contribution would be = $30 - $15 = $15
And
Profit for the mcDonalds will be-
Sales - contribution - fixed cost (Rent, Interest, wages)
= $30 - $15 - ($3+$2+$5)
= $5.
Hence $5 will be profit for the mcDonalds
*( All the amount is in USD million)
