Answer:

(C) 30.9%

Explanation:

Calculation for the company's contribution margin ratio

First step is to find the Contribution margin using this formula

Contribution margin = Sales - Variable expenses

Let plug in the formula

Contribution margin = $1,910,000-$1,319,000

Contribution margin = $591,000

Second step is to calculate for the Contribution margin ratio using this formula

Contribution margin ratio= Contribution margin ÷ Sales

Let plug in the formula

Contribution margin ratio = $591,000 ÷ $1,910,000

Contribution margin ratio = 0.309×100

Contribution margin ratio=30.9%

Calculation for Total Variable expenses

Variable manufacturing expense $956,000

Variable selling and administrative expense $363,000

Total $1,319,000

Therefore the Contribution margin ratio will be 30.9%
