Answer:

Variable Cost  -$448,000  

Explanation:

The contribution margin formula it's : Net Sales - Variable Costs: Contribution Margin

The contribution margin indicates how much money the company has to cover its expenses not included in the cost of the goods or the variable costs, it is the remaining amount that is used to pay the administrative and sales expenses.

In this case:

Sales : 16.000 x $40 (price) = $640,000

Contribution Margin 30% which means 30%*$640,000 = $192,000

The difference it's the Variable Costs = -$448.000
