Sorry,

in your post, this sentence

    "The contribution to profit and fixed cost from the sale of each book is $6.25."

does not make sense.

Double check with your source.

When you will find an error, fix it.

After that, you may re-post your request to the forum.

If you do, then PLEASE do not post it to me personally.
