Answer 1

Answer:

$40,500

A Companies Contribution Margin is a product's price minus all associated variable costs, this final value gives the products incremental profit earned for each unit sold. Therefore in this scenario, the Contribution Margin for the company is as follows

(4,500 * $20) - (4,500 * $11)

$90,000 - $49,500

$40,500

Therefore the final Contribution Margin for the company is $40,500 dollars.
