Oslo Company prepared the following contribution format income statement based on a sales volume of 1,000 units (the relevant range of production is 500 units to 1,500 units):
Sales | $ | 40,000 |
Variable expenses | 26,000 | |
Contribution margin | 14,000 | |
Fixed expenses | 8,680 | |
Net operating income | $ | 5,320 |
1. What is the contribution margin ratio?
2. What is the variable expense ratio?
3. If sales decline to 900 units, what would be the net operating income?
1.contribution margin ratio=contribution margin /Sales
=(14000/40000)=35%
2.Variable expense ratio=(Variable expenses/Sales)
(26000/40000)=65%
3.Sales price per unit=(400000/1000)=$40 per unit
Hence new sales=(40*900)=$36000
New contribution margin =(36000*0.35)=$12600
LEss:Fixed costs=($8680)
Net operating income=$3920.
