Answer:

The weighted-average unit contribution margin is $4.50 per unit.

Explanation:

Weighted Average contribution margin is the average contribution margin of all products company sells.

Sale

Product J = 7,400

Product B = 6,500

Unit contribution margin

Product J = $2.9

Product B = $6.3

Contribution of Product J = 7,400 x $2.9 = $21,460

Contribution of Product B = 6,500 x $6.3 = $40,950

Total Contribution = $21,460 + 40,950 = $62,410

Total Sales Unit = 7,400 + 6,500 = 13,900 units

Weighted average contribution margin = Total Contribution / Total sales unit

Weighted average contribution margin = $62,410 / 13,900 units

Weighted average contribution margin = $4.49 per unit

Weighted average contribution margin = $4.5 per unit
