Contribution margin = $192300

Explanation:

The term contribution margin per unit refers to the amount of money contributed by each unit towards covering the fixed costs of the company after accounting for all the related variable costs. In other words, this is the amount of money left from selling price per unit after deducting all the variable costs per unit from the selling price.

The contribution margin is the difference between the sales revenue and the total variable costs of the company. The formula for contribution margin is,

Contribution margin = Sales - Total Variable costs

Contribution margin = 406000 - (175800 + 25200 + 12700)

Contribution margin = $192300
