Explanation / Answer

Since answer to Requirement 1& 2 are already provided in the question, the following answers are for the remaining parts:

3. Sales = $465,000

Number of units = 1,000

Selling price per unit = $465

4. Variable cost = $46,500

Number of units = 1,000

Variable cost per unit = $46.5

5. Contribution = $372,000

Number of units = 1,000

Contribution per unit = $372

6. Contribution format of income statement would be more useful to managers in estimating how net operating income will change in responses to changes in unit sales. This is due to the fact that in Contribution format variable expenses are shown separately which will help the managers in estimating the changes in responses to changes in unit sales. As the unit changes the variable cost will change.
