Answer:

Total contribution margin= $177,000

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to calculate the unitary contribution margin:

Unitary contribution margin= total contribution margin / number of units

Unitary contribution margin= 159,300 / 2,700

Unitary contribution margin= $59

Now, the total contribution margin for 3,000 units:

Total contribution margin= 3,000*59

Total contribution margin= $177,000
