The contribution margin is a concept used with breakeven point or in break-even analysis. In words, the contribution margin is the amount of money a company has to cover its fixed costs after it pays all of its variable expenses.ontribution Margin per unit of sales = Sales Revenue per Unit-Variable Expenses per Unit. Contribution Margin-Fixed Costs = Net Operating Profit or Loss. The break-even formula calculates the point at which a company's sales are zero-there is no profit or loss:
ABC can use the weighted average contribution margin to calculate how many units it must sell in order to break even. Thus, fixed costs of $200,000 divided by a contribution margin of $10 per unit results in a requirement of 20,000 in unit sales in order to break even.
