Weighted-average contribution margin ratio

a)

Sales mix:

Bedroom division = 0.40 or 40%

Dining room division = 0.60 or 60%

b)

Weighted average contribution margin = 0.46 or 46%

Explanation:

a)

The sales mix is the proportion of sales of each product that the business makes relative to the total sales of the business.

Sales mix:

Bedroom division = 500000 / 1250000   = 2/5 or 40%

Dining room division = 750000 / 1250000  =  3/5 or 60%

b)

First we need to calculate the contribution margin ratio of each product.

Bedroom = 275000 / 500000  = 0.55 or 55%

Dining Room = 300000 / 750000  = 0.4 or 40%

The weighted average contribution margin can be calculated as follows,

Weighted average contribution margin = weight of Product A * contribution margin ratio of product A + weight of Product B * contribution margin ratio of product B

Weighted average contribution margin = 0.4 * 0.55  +  0.6 * 0.4

Weighted average contribution margin = 0.46 or 46%
