Concept Introduction:

Weighted Average Contribution Margin: Weighted Average Contribution Margin is calculated for two products with the help of following formula:

Weighted Average Contribution Margin = (Contribution margin of Product A * Weight of product A)                                                                       + (Contribution margin of Product B * Weight of product B)

Contribution margin: Contribution margin is the difference between sales price and variable costs. It is calculated with the help of following formula:

Contribution Margin = Sales price  Variable costs

Breakeven point for two products: Breakeven point is the level of output at which the sales is equal to the total cost and there is no profit or loss. Breakeven point in units for two products together is calculated with the help of following formulas:

Breakeven point (Units) =  Total Fixed CostWeighted Average Contribution Margin

Margin of Safety: Margin of safety is sales over and above the breakeven level. Margin of safety can be calculated as dollar amount and in units as follows:

Margin of safety ($) = Actual Sales  Breakeven sales

Margin of safety (%) =  (Actual Sales  Breakeven sales)Actual Sales

Degree of operating leverage: The Degree of operating leverage shows the relation between change in net operating income and change in sales. The formulas for degree of operating leverage are as follows:

Degree of operating leverage =  Contribution MarginOperating income 

Change in operating income = Changes in sales ×Degree of operating leverage

Requirement-1:
