Answer:

0.4 or 40%

Explanation:

The formula for Contribution Margin Ratio is:

[TS - TVC] / TS

Where TS = Total Sales

TVC = Total Variable Cost

Applying the formula,

[5,000 - 3,000] / 5,000  = 2000/5000  = 0.4

Turning this value to a percentage, 0.4 × 100 = 40%

The interpretation of this is that for every item sold, 40% of the sales price is available to cover fixed costs.

Remember: The addition of fixed cost to variable cost = total cost

Why labor and management might be at odds and why?
NikAS [45]

Withholding labor from management would, in theory, force the company to suffer great enough financial losses that they would agree to worker terms. Strikes have been known in America since the colonial age, but their numbers grew larger in the Gilded Age.
