1.
Degree of Operating Leverage = Contribution Margin / Operating Income
Trimax = $350,000 / $70,000
= 5
Therefore, degree of operating leverage of Trimax is 5.
Quintex = $700,000 / $70,000
= 10
Therefore, degree of operating leverage of Quintex is 10.
2.
Break-even point in dollars = Fixed Cost / Contribution Margin Ratio
Thus, first calculate the contribution ratio:
Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution Margin / Sales * 100
Trimax = $350,000 / $700,000 * 100
= 50%
Quintex = $700,000 / $875,000 * 100
= 80%
Now, calculate the break-even point in dollars:
Break-even point in dollars = Fixed Cost / Contribution Margin Ratio
Trimax = $280,000 / 0.50
= $560,000
Therefore, break-even point in dollars of Trimax is $560,000.
Quintex = $630,000 / 0.80
= $787,500
Therefore, break-even point in dollars of Quintex is $787,500.
The reason for higher break-even point in dollars for Quintex is due to Higher Fixed Expenses.
