Data concerning those products appear below: TC GL NG Selling price per unit $ 494.40 $ 449.43 $ 469.68 Variable cost per unit $ 395.20 $ 320.21 $ 373.92 Minutes on the constraint 8.00 7.10 7.60 Assume that sufficient constraint time is available to satisfy demand for all but the least profitable product.

Answer:

The company should be willing to pay for the least profitable product (TC) which is $12.4/minute

Explanation:

                                                          TC               GL             NG

Contribution margin / unit              $99.2      $129.22     $95.76

(Selling price-Variable costs)

Contribution margin/minute          $12.4         $18.2            $12.6

(Contribution margin/Minutes

on the constraint)

Conclusion: Hence, the company should be willing to pay for the least profitable product (TC) which is $12.4/minute

Working

Contribution margin / unit = Selling price-Variable costs

TC= $494.4 - $395.2 = $99.2

GL= $449.43-$320.21 = $129.22

NG= $469.68-$373.92 = $95.76

Contribution margin/minute

TC= $99.2 / 8 =$12.4

GL= $129.22/7.1 =$18.2

NG= $95.76/7.60 =$12.6
