Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is D: $13

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cost per Unit Cost per Period:

Direct materials $ 6.20

Direct labor $ 2.80

Variable manufacturing overhead $ 1.45

Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 12,000

Sales commissions $ 1.00

Variable administrative expense $ 0.55

Fixed selling and administrative expense $ 4,000

Price= 25

Contribution margin= Price - variable costs

Variable costs= direct materials + direct labor + variable manufacturing overhead + sales commissions + variable administrative expense

Variavle costs= 6.20 + 2.80 + 1.45 + 1 + 0.55= $12

Contribution margin per unit= 25 - 12= $13
