Answer 1

C. $ 126.67

Step-by-step explanation:

we are asked for corporated customer therefore, the individual business segment data is ignored

The contribution margin is the difference between the sales revenue and the variable cost.

Corporate contribution margin:

70,000 revenue - 32,000 variable cost = contribution margin

contribution margin = 38,000

Then, we divide over the 300 corporate customer to know the contribution per customer:

38,000 / 300 = 126,666666
