Respuesta :

Answer:

Total contribution margin= $55,200

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

A company’s flexible budget for 14,000 units of production showed sales, $47,600; variable costs, $15,400.

The contribution margin is calculated using the following formula:

Contribution margin per unit= selling price - unitary variable cost

First, we need to calculate the selling price and unitary variable cost:

Selling price= 47,600/14,000= $3.4

Unitary variable cost= 15,400/14,000= $1.1

For 24,000 units:

Total contribution margin= 24,000*(3.4 - 1.1)= $55,200
