The Victor Company sells two products. The following information is provided: Product A Product BUnit selling price$100 $150 Unit variable cost$30 $70 Number of units produced and sold 20,000 60,000 What is the weighted average contribution margin per unit? A. $75.00
B. $80.00
C. $77.50
D. $72.50

Weighted average contribution margin= $77.5

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Product A Product B

Unit selling price $100 $150

Unit variable cost $30 $70

Number of units produced and sold 20,000 60,000

First, we need to determine the sales proportion:

Product A= 20,000/80,000= 0.25

Product B= 0.75

To calculate the weighted-average contribution margin, we need to use the following formula:

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

Weighted average contribution margin= (0.25*100 + 0.75*150) - (0.25*30 + 0.75*70)

Weighted average contribution margin= 137.5 - 60

Weighted average contribution margin= $77.5

yes the correct answer was

b.the increased supply will create a surplus.
