Frequently Asked Questions

How is Contribution Margin calculated?

Contribution Margin = (Selling Price per Unit - Variable Cost per Unit) x Number of Units Sold. It is the revenue left over after variable costs, before fixed costs are subtracted.

How is Contribution Margin different from gross profit?

Gross profit subtracts all cost of goods sold, which can include some fixed manufacturing costs. Contribution margin subtracts only variable costs, making it a better tool for break-even and what-if volume analysis.
