b) $207,900
c) $151,800
d) $287,100
e) $128,700

Answer 1

Answer:

Total manufacturing margin= $151,800

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Units sold=  3,300

Unitary variable manufacturing cost= $41

Selling price per unit= $87

Because we need to calculate the manufacturing margin, we will not take into account the administrative costs:

Total manufacturing margin= 3,300*(87 - 41)

Total manufacturing margin= $151,800
