Selling price   $160   $180   $200
Direct materials   60   60   60
Direct labour ($20 per hour)   30   30   40
Variable support costs ($10 per machine-hour)   10   20   20
Fixed support costs   40   40   40

a.   For each model, compute the contribution margin per unit.
b.   For each model, compute the contribution margin per machine-hour.
c.   If there is excess capacity, which model is the most profitable to produce? Why?
d.   If there is constrained capacity, which model is the most profitable to produce? Why?
e.   How can Ralph encourage her sales people to promote the more profitable model?
