    Less: Variable Costs

    Manufacturing = $95 X 5,000 = $475,000

    Selling and Administrative = $6 X 5,000 = $30,000

    Contribution margin = $995,000

    Less: Fixed cost

    Manufacturing = $280,000

    Selling & Administrative = $120,000

    Current Operating Income = $595,000

    Variable Manufacturing cost $95 X 300 = $28,500

    Operating Profit = $7,500
