As a result of a change in strategy to selling differentiated products at premium prices, a company’s gross margin ratio increased by 5% (i.e., from 35% to 40%). The most likely effect on the company’s operating margin ratio as a result of the change in strategy would be an increase:
A. equal to 5%.
B. less than 5%.
