    Degree of operating leverage = 4.5

    Expected percentage change in income = 36%

    Explanation:

    To find the degree of operating leverage we use the formula:

    Degree of operating leverage = contributing margin / net income

    = 95400 / 21200 = 4.5

    For percentage change in income we use:

    Expected % change in income = % increase in sale * degree of operating leverage

    = 8% * 4.5 =

    = 36%
