    1. What is the company's contribution margin (CM) ratio?

    = sales - variable cost / sales

    = $315,000 - $239,400/$315,000

    = $75,600/$315,000

    = 0.24 x 100

    = 24%

    2. What is the estimated change in the company's net operating income if it can increase total sales by $1,100?

    Net operating income

    = sales - variable cost - fixed cost

    = $315,000 - $239,400 - $39,000

    = $36,600

    Change in operating income

    = $316,100 - $239,400 - 39,000

    = $37,700

    Contribution margin ratio

    = $316,600 - $239,400/316,600

    = $77,200/$316,600

    = 0.24 x 100

    = 24%

    Estimated change

    =Change in total sales x CMR

    = $1,100 x 24%

    = $264
