    Profit margin = $3 per unit

    Explanation:

    The profit margin earned is the difference between selling price and the manufacturing cost

    Manufacturing cost per unit = variable cost + fixed overhead cost per unit

    overhead absorption rate = estimated overhead/estimated machine hours

    =$220,000/20,000 machine hours

    = $11 per hour

    Manufacturing cost per unit = 2 + (11 * 2) = $24 per unit

    Profit margin = 27 - 24

    = $3 per unit
