McCoy Brothers manufactures and sells two products, A and Z in the ratio of 5:2. Product A sells for $75; Z sells for $95. Variable costs for product A are $35; for Z $40. Fixed costs are $418,500. Compute the contribution margin per composite unit

Weighted average contribution margin= $44.29

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales proportion:

Product A= 5/7= 0.714

Product Z= 2/7= 0.286

Product A sells for $75; Z sells for $95.

Variable costs for product A are $35; for Z $40.

To determine the contribution margin per composite unit, we need to use the following formula:

Weighted average contribution margin= (weighted average selling price - weighted average unitary variable cost)

Weighted average contribution margin= (0.714*75 + 0.286*95) - (0.714*35 + 0.286*40)

Weighted average contribution margin= 80.72 - 36.43

Weighted average contribution margin= $44.29

hi : ) i found this so i hope this !

"we first find value of tax in dollars.

the difference between the two prices   is: 23. 54 - 22 = 1.54

therefore the sales tax in dollars is 1.54

the tax % will be   (amount of tax / original cost price ) × 100

(1.54 / 22) × 100  → (0.07) × 100 =   7

so the tax rate is 7%

we can double check the answer.

7 % of 22   → (7/100) × 22 → 0.07 × 22 = 1.54

22 + 1.54 = 23.54"
