Answer:
The company's degree of operating leverage is closest to $840000
Explanation:
Selling price per unit = Sales revenue / No. of bags sold
= $1560000/200000 bags = $7.8 per bag
Variable cost per unit=Total variable expenses/No. of units
= $840000/200000 units = $4.2 per bag
Company’s unit contribution margin = Selling price per unit-Variable cost per unit
= $7.8 per unit-$4.2 per unit = $3.6 per unit
Company's degree of operating leverage = Variables manufacturing expense + Variable selling and administrative expense
=$660000+$180000 = $840000
