    Unitary contribution margin in the best-case scenario = $221.86

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    The expected variable cost per unit is $139. Cost estimates are considered accurate within a ±1 percent range. The sales price is estimated at $349 per unit, ±3 percent.

    In the best-case scenario, the variable cost is at its lower and the selling price is higher.

    Unitary variable cost = 139*0.99 = 137.61

    Selling price = 349*1.03 = 359.47

    The contribution margin per unit is the difference between the selling price and the unitary variable cost:

    Unitary contribution margin = selling price - unitary variable cost

    Unitary contribution margin = 359.47 - 137.61 = $221.86
