Because CVP is so important, management often wants the information reported in a special format income statement.The CVP income statement is for internal use only, classifies costs and expenses as fixed or variable, reports a contribution margin in the body of the statement.
Contribution margin – amount of revenue remaining after deducting all variable costs
The contribution margin is often reported as a total amount and on a per unit basis.

Operating leverageOperating leverage refers to the extent that net income reacts to a given change in sales.
Higher fixed costs relative to variable costs cause a company to have higher operating leverage.
When sales revenues are increasing, high operating leverage means that profits will increase rapidly – a good thing.
When sales revenues are declining, too much operating leverage can have devastating consequences.

Big Decisions for Your Energy FutureThe cost of wind powered electricity is as low as 3 or 4 cents per kilowatt hour (about the same as coal).
It costs about $77,500 to install a residential solar-powered system. It would take 50 years without subsidies to recover your cost or ten years with subsidies.
Industrial plants using solar power have a cost of 30 cents per kilowatt hour. A new approach could lower this to 9 – 12 cents.
