6. contribution format
Explanation:
Selling price per unit = Total Sales Revenue / Units Sold
                  =  $ 360,000 / 1,000 units
                  =  $ 360
variable cost per unit = Total Variable Cost / units sold
                  = $288,000 / 1,000 units
                  = $288
contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit
                        = $ 360 - $288
                        = $72
Contribution format is more useful to managers because its shows separately the changes in variable costs and contribution with any change in units sales
