Respuesta :

Answer:

Contribution margin for couches is $700 per machine hour

Explanation:

Contribution = Sales Price - Variable Cost

Contribution per unit of Couches = $700 - $350 = $350

Total units in one hour = 2

Contribution per unit of Bed = $900 - $400 = $500

Total units in one hour = 1

Contribution per machine hour for couches = Contribution per unit of couches X number of units in one hour = $350 X 2 = $700 per machine hour.

Contribution margin for couches is $700 per machine hour.
