Answer:

Total Contribution = $52

Explanation:

Given:

Fixed cost = $1,782,000

Product   Sales price   VC per unit

Regular      $20               $8

Ultra            $24               $4

Computation:

Contribution = Sales - VC

Contribution on regular product = 20 - 8 = $12

Contribution on ultra product = 24 - 4 = $20

Total Contribution = (1 x 12) + (2 x 20)

Total Contribution = 12 + 40

Total Contribution = $52
