Selling price per unit 265
Variable costs:
Plastic for casing 20
Wages for assembly workers 85
Drum stands 29
Sales commissions 18
Variable Cost per unit 152
Contribution Margin per unit 113
*Calculation of variable cost per unit:
Variable cost per unit = Total variable cost / Sales units
Variable costs:
Plastic for casing 83000 / 4150                               = 20
Wages for assembly workers 352750 / 4150 = 85
Drum stands 120350 / 4150 = 29
Sales commissions 74700 / 4150 = 18
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
Contribution margin ratio   = Contribution margin per unit / Selling price per unit * 100
113 / 265 * 100
42.64
or         43%
