1. Why would a company want to know their operating leverage when they can already calculate the number of units that need to be sold to reach a desired level of profit?
2. If a company had two products: pistachios that can be sold at a profit of $1.00 per unit and oranges that can be sold at a profit of $0.30 per unit why would the company sell both pistachios and oranges instead of only pistachios?
