Detailed explanation-1: -Also known as dollar contribution per unit, the measure indicates how a particular product contributes to the overall profit of the company. It provides one way to show the profit potential of a particular product offered by a company and shows the portion of sales that helps to cover the company’s fixed costs.
Detailed explanation-2: -Contribution margin is the amount of revenue left over after all variable costs have been deducted from total sales.
