Respuesta :

Answer:

$70,000

Explanation:

using the contribution margin approach:

Total gross margin = Contribution margin x total units sold

contribution margin= selling price- variable costs

                                   = $ 75- ( direct material +Direct labor + m. overhead)

                                   = $75-$40

                                   =$35

gross margin = $35x 2000 units

                      = $70,000

Answer:

total cost per unit is 15+6+19=40 $ and each unit was sold for Rs. 75 $ each for the purpose of gross margin we will not consider selling and admin expenses and the gross margin here would be 75-40= 35 $

Explanation:

I have not considered selling and admin expenses for the gross margin as it will become net margin if we go with deducting that expense from the total unit cost.
