Answer:

Contribution income statement -  Assuming that operations are not automated.

Sales (26,000 units at $30 per unit)                        $780,000

Variable expenses ($409,500/ 19,500 × 26,000)  ($546,000)

Contribution margin                                                  $234,000

Fixed expenses                                                        ($180,000 )

Net operating loss                                                       $54,000

Contribution income statement -  Assuming that operations are automated.

Sales (26,000 units at $30 per unit)                        $780,000

Variable expenses ($18 × 26,000)                         ($468,000)

Contribution margin                                                  $312,000

Fixed expenses ($180,000 + $72,000 )                 ($252,000 )

Net operating loss                                                      $60,000

Explanation:

A contribution Income Statement Shows the contribution (Sales less Variable Costs).

See the Statements for the Assumptions above.
