(B) is the Correct Ans.

 

Using High Low Method,

$500,000 - $200,000 /200,0000 -100,000 =  $3 Variable Cost Per Unit 

 

So,

Sale Price Per Unit = $300,000 /50,000 =  $6 Per Unit

 

And Contribution Per unit is =6 -3 =3

calculation of contribution margin per unit :

   Selling price per unit                                 = Sales price / sales unit

                                                                         = $300,000/50,000

                                                                         =$6 per unit

less: Variable cost per unit:

        =(Highest-lowest Total production cost)/(Highest volume-lowest volume)

        =$(500,000-200,000)/(200,000-100,000)

                                                                          =$3

  Contribution margin per unit                      $3

Hence B-3 is the correct answer
