Well, as our esteemed colleagues point out, the "bidrag" bit implies less than full coverage of costs. Most subsidies are indeed "partial" but I feel safer being explicit. The asker can always drop it, thanks to your good question.

\"Contribution profit margin\" is in fact the formal accounting term.
There is also a more rare form of \"täckningsbidrag\" that relates to a specific subsidy given to farmers under certain circumstances - cover subsidy. It\'s unusual and has probably not got anything to do with what you are looking for here...

coverage contribution
This is the literal translation, it can be bended from (täckning=coverage or backing in a financial sense, account coverage, for example)to(bidrag=contribution, allowance, benefit), so shape it to suit your context (or provide more).
