Degree of Operating Leverage, Percent Change in Profit Ringsmith Company is considering two different processes to make its product-process 1 and process 2. Process 1 requires Ringsmith to manufacture subcomponents of the product in-house. As a result, materials are less expensive, but fixed overhead is higher. Process 2 invalves purchasing all subcomponents from outside suppliers. The direct materials costs are higher, but fixed factory overhead is considerably lower. Relevant data for a sales level of 36,000 units follow: Process 1 Process 2 Sales 59,504,000 59,504,000 Variable expenses 3,744,000 4,896,000 Contribution margin 55,760,000 54,600,000 Less total fixed expenses 3,784,310 1,418,510 Operating Income $1,975,690 S3,189,490 Unit selling price 5264 5264 Unit variable cost 5104 5136 Unit contribution margin 5160 5128 Required: 1.
