Formula: CONTRIBUTION
--------------------
EBIT/OP.PROFIT
Sales = 36000
Less V.Cost = 12000
Contribution = 24000
Less F.Cost = 7000
EBIT/OP.Profit = 17000
OP.Leverage = Contribution
---------------------
EBIT/Op.Profit
= 24000
17000
So = 1.47 times
OR = EBIT
EBT-I
= 24000
24000-4000
= 24000
20000
= 1.2 Times
= 1.47 X 1.2
= 1.764 Times
