    Explanation:

    Given the following:

    Current sales price per unit = $150

    Variable cost per unit = 30% of sales price

    30% of sales price

    0.3 * $150 = $45

    Contribution margin ratio:

    Contribution margin ratio = (sales price per unit - variable cost per unit) / sales price per unit

    Contribution margin ratio:

    $ (150 - 45) / $150

    $105 / $150 = 0.7

    = 70%
