Contribution Margin

Am I able to format my Profit Loss Statement to calculate Contribution Margin?  I know I can export it to Excel and calculate CM, but can I format my PL to do it right in QB?

Contribution Margin

The term "Contribution Margin" is different from 'gross profit', 'operating margin', or 'profit margin'. Those other 3 measure have fairly simple definitions and can be programmed into a QB report - but it may be a custom report.
"Cont Marg" usually refers to the net income produced from a business transaction or activity - taking into account all the related variable costs throughout the business. This is an advanced analysis that has to be done by a person who fully understands all aspects of the business. You might be able to create custom QB report if your situation is very simple - but I doubt it.
