in4maha I dont get this question can any one explain it plz
hoyleng in4maha : it asks about the formula for DOL
johntan1979 DOL = % change in EBIT / % change in sales
stanevd a is also possible
Inaganti6 A is not possible I think the relation between EBIT and SALES gets very linear or there is a straight forward ratio/multiple type effect if there isn't any operating leverage
