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 |

I am using your study notes and I know of at least 5 other friends of mine who used it and passed the exam last Dec. Keep up your great work!
