(Loss)                       ($11,000)             $103,000

Explanation:

a) Data:

Sales                        $600,000

Variable Expense   $240,000

Contribution           $360,000

Fixed expense        $155,000

Operating Income $205,000

b) Calculation of the Contribution Margin Ratio = $360,000/$600,000 x 100 = 60%

c) With Contribution Margin Ratio as 60%, the variable cost ratio is calculated as follows:

= 100% - 60% = 40%

This ratio is used to calculate the variable cost, and then the result of the workings follow sequentially.  It is assumed that the fixed cost does not change within the relevant sales ranges.

This can also be used to work out different income statement data.
