Respuesta :

Answer:

d. $41,000

Explanation:

The computation of the total contribution to profit and overhead is shown below:

Contribution by Business Hotel Customers is

= Sales - variable cost

= (100-25) ×280

= $21,000

Now  

Contribution by Convention Association Hotel Customers = Sales - variable cost

= (75 - 25)× 400

= $20,000

And, finally

Total contribution to profit and overhead is

= $21,000 + $20,000

= $41,000
