Answer:

b. $311,600

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what total contribution margin should be closest to:

Using this formula

Contribution margin per unit=Current contribution margin ÷ Current sales in units

Where,

Contribution margin per unit

=$319,200 ÷ 8,400

Contribution margin per unit= $38

Now let determine the total contribution margin

Total contribution margin= 8,200 × $38

Total contribution margin=$311,600

Therefore total contribution margin should be closest to:$311,600
