This answer results from using the amount of increase in net income before tax. The increase in net income after tax should be used instead. The current contribution margin is $6,000,000 ($20,000,000 × .30). If sales increase by 10%, the contribution margin will increase by 10% of $6,000,000, or $600,000. Selling expense will increase by 10% of the increased sales. Sales will increase by $2,000,000 (10% of $20,000,000), so selling expense will increase by $2,000,000 × .10, or $200,000. Net income before tax will therefore increase by $600,000 ? $200,000, or $400,000. The increase in net income after tax will be $400,000 × (1 ? .35), which is $260,000. There are 2,000,000 shares outstanding, so the increased net income after tax per share will be $260,000 ÷ 2,000,000, which is $.13 per share. This is not the correct answer.
