Contribution margin = $10,2

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the contribution margin is:

CM = Price - variable costs

First, we need to determine which cost are variable:

Cost Per Unit Direct materials $ 6.30

Direct labor $ 3.80

Variable manufacturing overhead $1.50

Variable administrative expense $ 0.50

Total variable cost = $12.1

Cm = $22.30 - $12.1 = $10,2
