Explain the concept of operating leverage

Dear Student,

Operating leverage refers to the percentage of fixed costs that a company has.It is the ratio of fixed costs to variable costs. If a business firm has a lot of fixed costs as compared to variable costs, then the firm is said to have high operating leverage and vice versa.

Operating Leverage = Contribution Margin / Net Operating Income
