    b. $22.75

    Explanation:

    We know that

    Contribution margin per unit = Sales price per unit - variable cost per unit

    Since the selling price is $35

    And, the contribution margin is 35%

    Therefore, the contribution margin per unit would be

    = $35 * 35 per cent

    = $12.25

    Now add these figures in the formula above.

    Hence, the value would be equal to

    = $35 - $12.25

    = $22.75

    The inventory and labor costs are included in the variable cost
