    Greetings sir.

    Hope you’re doing well.

    Q.78. The answer at the back shows we have to divide the contribution by 12. However the question was asking for contribution per unit and not minute. A note worthy example is the question right after this (Q.79) asking specifically for the throughput per minute, and not unit.
    So there should be consistency and I have to insist as a result they seem to have made a blunder.

    The question does not ask for the contribution per unit.

    It asks for the contribution per unit of limiting factor, and the limiting factor is the labour time.

    So the answer is consistent 🙂

    So the unit is the minutes (the limiting factor) ?

    What a cleverly worded question…

    Correct (and yes it is cleverly worded 🙂 )
