Large Small
muffin muffin
Sales price per unit $6.00 $3.50
Less variable cost per unit (3.00 ) (2.00 )
Contribution margin per unit $3.00 $1.50
Number of units x 3 x 2
Weighted contribution margin $9.00 $3.00
Total weighted contribution = $9.00 + $3.00 = $12.00
Weights = 3 large muffins + 2 small muffins = 5 muffins
Weighted-average contribution margin per unit = $12.00 / 5 muffins = $2.40 per muffin
