Expert Solution
Step 1 Introduction

The contribution margin of a company is the amount of money that is left over from sales after paying all of the variable expenditures that are connected with creating a product. This margin is also referred to as the gross margin. Your net income, also known as profit, is calculated by taking your contribution margin and deducting all of your fixed expenditures, such as rent, equipment leases, and wages.
