Answer:

the contribution margin per composite unit is $365

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the contribution margin per composite unit is shown below:

= Contribution margin per unit for product A × ratio of A + Contribution margin per unit for product B × ratio of B

= ($86 - $45) × 5 + ($124 - $49) × 2

= $205 + $160

= $365

Hence the contribution margin per composite unit is $365
