Answer:

Tunneling Inc.

Degree of operating leverage

= Contribution Margin divided by Operating Income

= $440,000/$290,000 = 1.52

Explanation:

(a) Data and Calculations:

Sales Revenue =   $840,000 (10,000 x $84)

Variable cost =           $400,000 (10,000 x $40)

Contribution =            $440,000

Fixed costs =              $100,000

Depreciation =             $50,000

Operating Income = $290,000

Tax (21%)                    ($60,900)

Net Income =             $229,100

(b) The degree of operating leverage for Tunneling Inc. is 1.52.  It shows the financial impact of a change in sales revenue on Tunneling Inc.'s earnings.  Analysts usually work this ratio out to determine this important effect.
