    Contribution margin = $4,125

    Unitary contribution margin = $37.5

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Stanley's Bicycles store buys bicycles on average for $600 and sells them on average for $750. He pays a sales commission of 15% of sales revenue to his sales staff. Stanley pays $1900 a month rent for his store and also pays $5000 a month to his staff in addition to the commissions. Stanley sold 110 bicycles in June.

    Sales = 750*110 = $82,500

    Variable cost = [600 + (0.15*750) ]*110 = $78,375 (-)

    Contribution margin = $4,125

    Unitary contribution margin = 750 - 712.5 = $37.5
