unitary contribution margin= 120 - 36
unitary contribution margin= $84
Income will increase by $84.
Answer:
A) The mower is only expected to be needed for three years.
Explanation:
Excelsior is surely more expensive than the Grassassinator, due to its longer working life. Therefore, it is essential to examine the period of use of the lawn mower.

In this case, it would be more financially efficient to invest in the Grassassinator.

Answer: Average unit cost=$5.800 per unit
Cost of Ending inventory =$3,190
Explanation:
Average unit cost
First purchase= 650 units x $4=$2,600
Second Purchase=750 units x $6 =$4,500
Third Purchase= 850 units x $7 = $5,950
Total Cost = $13,050
Average unit cost = Total cost/ number of units =13,050/(650+750+850)= 13,050/2250= $5.8 per unit
Cost of Ending inventory = 550 unts at hand x $5.8 =$3,190
(using the average cost method)
