Vanessa Stuart · Answer 1

Contribution margin per composit unit is $56

Explanation:

Composit unit are the unit of sales which is made by combining multiple products. They are sold as a package. Their costs are calculated calculated.

Product Unit S. Price V. Cost / unit CM / unit No. of unit

Regular $20 $8 $16 1

Ultra $24 $4 $20 2

Composit Margin per unit = (1 x CM per unit Regular) + (2 x CM per unit Ultra)

Composit Margin per unit = (1 x $16) + (2 x $20)

Composit Margin per unit = $16 + $40

Composit Margin per unit = $56
