This question relates to the BCG matrix which allows a company with multiple divisions to know how to deal with its various divisions based on their growth rate and market share.
The question specifically relates to a matrix called "Cash cows". Cash cows are divisions that have a significant market share but a low growth rate. These divisions are stable and bring more money into the company than they cost to run.
This allows us to take profits from them and invest in other. The Railroad loading controls a significant market share of 75% but has a low growth rate so is a Cash cow.

Answer:
$12.45
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what the contribution margin per unit sold is closest to:
First step is to calculate the Variable cost per unit using this formula
Variable cost per unit = Direct materials per unit + Direct labor per unit + Variable manufacturing overhead per unit + Sales commissions per unit + Variable administrative expense per unit
Let plug in the formula
Variable cost per unit = $5.15 + $5.30 + $1.95 + $0.60 + $0.55
Variable cost per unit = $13.55
Now let determine the Contribution margin per unit using this formula
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
Let plug in the formula
Contribution margin per unit = $26.00 - $13.55
Contribution margin per unit = $12.45
Therefore the contribution margin per unit sold is closest to:$12.45
