b. Unit contribution margin $ per unit
c. Contribution margin ratio %

Respuesta :

Answer:

a) $96 per unit

b) $224 per unit

c) 70%

Explanation:

We will have to compute variable cost and contribution margin

Sales $2,400,000

7,500 × 320

Less; Variable cost $720,000

Contribution margin $1,680,000

Less : Fixed cost $120,000

Operating income. $1,560,000

a) Variable cost per unit

= Total variable cost ÷ Total number of units

= $720,000 ÷ 7,500 units

= $96 per unit

b) Unit contribution margin

= Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

= $320 - $96

= $224

c) Contribution margin ratio

= (Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit) ÷ Selling price per unit × 100

= ($320 - $96) ÷ $320 × 100

= $224 ÷ 320 × 100

= 70%
