Less: Variable Costs (2,200 * 8.43)                                          (18,546)

Contribution Margin                                                                   17,204

Less: Fixed Cost                                                                         (9,500)

         Depreciation Expense                                                      (4,000)

Earning Before Interest and Taxes                                           $3,704
