Question

Krepps Corporation produces a single product. Last year, Krepps manufactured 27,970 units and sold 22.200 units. Production costs for the year were as follows: Direct materials Direct labor Variable manufacturing overhead Fixed manufacturing overhead $234,943 131,49 240,542 $335,640 Sales totaled $1,043,400 for the yesr, varlable selling and adminlistrative expenses totaled $113.220, and fixed selling and administrative expenses totaled $198.587. There was no beginning Inventory. Assume that direct labor Is a varlable cost The contribution margin per unit was: Multiple Chaice $20.20 per unit $15.70 per unit $25.30 per unit $21.30 per unit

Explanation / Answer

Contribution Margin Per Unit = Selling Price Per Unit - Variable Cost Per Unit

= $ 47 Per Unit - $ 26.80 Per Unit

= $ 20.20 Per Unit

Hence, the correct answer is $ 20.20 per unit

Notes :

Selling Price Per Unit = Total Sales / Total Units Sold

= $ 1,043,000 / 22,200 Units

= $ 47 Per Unit

Total Variable Cost for 27,970 Units= Direct Materials + Direct Labor + Variable Manufacturing Overhead

= $ 234,948 + $131,459+ $ 240,542

= $ 606,949

Variable Cost Per Unit 27,970 Units =Total Variable Cost for 27,970 Units / 27,970 Units

= $ 606,949 / 27,970 Units

= $ 21.70

Total Variable Cost for 22,200 Units = Variable Selling and Administrative Expenses / 22,200 Units

= $ 113,220 / 22,200 Units

= $ 5.10 Per Unit

Hence, total  Variable Cost = $ 21.70 + $ 5.10 Per Unit

= $ 26.80 Per Unit
