    The Contribution Margin and Contribution Margin Ratio is $6,288.14 millions and 34.61% respectively.

    Explanation:

    The computation of the contribution margin and the contribution margin ratio is shown below:

    = Sales - Food and packaging - Payroll - 40% of General, selling, and administrative expenses

    = $18,169.3 - $6,129.70 - $4,756 - 40% * 2,487.9

    = $18,169.3 - $6,129.70 - $4,756 - $995.16

    = $6,288.14 millions

    Now the contribution margin ratio equals to

    = (Contribution margin : sales) * 100

    = ($6,288.44 : $18,169.3) * 100

    = 34.61%
