Question:

Midlife Orthopedics Inc. provides two types of physical therapy service sessions, Injury Rehabilitation and Preventative Care, with unit contribution margins of $200 and $300, respectively.

[Note: For all answers that are less than 1.0, round the answer to two decimal places. For all unit answers (e.g., the answer is greater than 1.0), round the answer to the nearest whole number.]
