Answer: Degree of Operating Leverage

A Tech = 2.75

Z Tech = 3

Explanation:

As defined in question itself,

Degree of Operating Leverage = 1 + \frac{fixed\ cost}{Profit}

As here, it is provided that profit for both the companies are same amounting $4 million.

Although the fixed cost differ by $1 million.

A Tech Degree of operating Leverage = 1 + \frac{7,000,000}{4,000,000} = 2.75

Z Tech Degree of Operating Leverage = 1 + \frac{8,000,000}{4,000,000} = 3

This clearly demonstrates that A Tech will reach its break even faster than the Z Tech as the ratio of fixed cost to variable cost is lower in A tech in comparison to Z Tech.
