Question

Abby Cleaning Service had the following information for the 200 customers served this month: Sales Revenue $20,000 Variable Costs 8,000 What is the contribution margin ratio?

Answer 1

Answer:

= 60%

Explanation:

Contribution ratio represents the marginal benefits of producing an extra unit. It is calculated by the formula.

CM ration= Contribution margin/ sales revenue

Contribution margin = sales - varible costs

therefore contribution margin ratio= sales -revenue/ sales x 100

=$20,000 - $ 8000/ 20,000 x 100

= 12000/20000 x 100

=0.6 x 100

= 60%
