Transcribed Image Text:What is the most this hardware store can pay per unit for these tools if it wants to move forward with this promotion? (Round
answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25.)
Variable cost per unit $

Transcribed Image Text:The local hardware store is considering a promotion in which it would sell preselected tools for $6 each. The managers are hoping tha
young adults will come into the store and equip themselves with "the basics," allowing the store's service-oriented staff to teach them
how to use each tool. However, the company's profit goals require a contribution margin ratio of at least 60% before any new
promotions are approved. The company's current variable cost per unit for these tools is $2.82, and its tax rate is 30%.
