Respuesta :

Answer:

d. $13.00

Explanation:

contributon margin = selling price - variable cost

sales price: $25 per unit

list of variable cost:

Direct mateirals              6.20

Direct labor                     2.80

variable overhead           1.45

sales commisions            1.00

adminsitrative variable   0.55  

total variable cost         12.00

$25 selling price per unit - $12 variable cost per unit =

$13 contribution margin per unit

This is the amount each units "contributes" to ay the fixed cost and make a gain during the period.
