A company has three products possible products that it can produce in a machine intensive production process.  Capacity is constrained by the number of hours the machines can run  during a period and the products are so popular that all units produced will be sold.  Here is additional information:

​Product AProduct BProduct C
Contribution per unit$20$30$40
Machine hours per unit2.53.254.5
Which of the following would be an accurate conclusion based on these facts?
◦ A balanced mix of 1/3 A, 1/3 B, and 1/3 C should be the goal when maximizing operating income in the short-run.
◦ Since Product C has the greatest contribution margin per unit and therefore emphasizing its production and sales will lead to the highest operating income in the short-run
◦ Since A takes less time to produce, maximization of operating income will occur by emphasizing production and sales of A.
◦ Product B  should be emphasized if the goal is to maximize contribution margin.
