Ending merchandise inventory    ( $ 8,000)
Cost of goods sold              168,000
Variable selling expense         $ 12,000
Variable administrative expense  $ 12,000    192,000
Contribution margin                      $ 48,000
Fixed selling expense          $ 24,000
Fixed administrative expense    $ 9,600      33,600

2. Traditional format income statement:
Sales                                 $ 240,000
Beginning merchandise inventory $ 16,000
Purchases                    $ 160,000
Ending merchandise inventory    ( $ 8,000)

Variable selling expense        $ 12,000
Variable administrative expense $ 12,000 Â Â Â Â Â Â 57,600
Net operating income                      $ 14,400
3. Selling price per unit:
Sales revenue/1,000 = $240,000/1,000 = $240
4. Variable cost per unit:
Total variable costs/1,000
= $192,000/1,000
= $192
5. Contribution margin per unit:
= Selling price minus variable cost per unit
= $240 - 192
= $48
6. Contribution format income statement will be more useful because it calculates the contribution margin per unit, which can be used to estimate the net operating income changes in response to changes in unit sales.
