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:
In other words, the point where sales revenue equals total variable costs plus total fixed costs, and contribution margin equals fixed costs. Using the previous information and given that the company has fixed costs of $300,000, the breakâeven income statement shows zero net income.
