The bundle prices for Hydration Power Drink and Satisfying Smoothie are given below.

<h3>What is Contribution Margin?</h3>

The contribution margin (CM), also known as the dollar contribution per unit, is the difference between the selling price and the variable cost per unit.

Because 100% is the best contribution margin, the closer the contribution margin is to 100%, the better. The greater the figure, the better a company's ability to meet its overhead expenditures with cash on hand.

The contribution margin =

Unit Margin (Profit) = Unit Revenue - Unit Variable Cost (Marginal Cost)

<h3>What is the bundle prices and Net Profit?</h3>

For Hydration Power Drink:

High 7 -1 = 6

Low: 6 - 1 = 5

Total = 11

For Satisfying Smoothie:

Low: 5-4 = 1

Total  = 7

High Bundle Price for both products:
6 + 6 = 12

5 + 1 = 6
