A company sells two products with information as follows:
A B
Sales price per unit $15 $21
Variable cost per unit $4 $13
Products are made by machine. Four units of product A can be made with three machine hours and five units of product B can be made with 0.7 machine hour.
1. If there are no constraints on production or sales of either product, then the company should emphasize sales of product B.
O True O False

The Contribution margin i.e Sale price less Variable Cost per unit for product A is (15-4) is $11 & for product B is ( 21-13) is $8. for making 4 units of product A we need three machine hours, so if we divide units by machine hours only 0.9 unit of A can be made in an hour while we can made 5 units in 0.7 hours pf product B, so if we divide 5 by 0.7, approximately 7 unit of B can me made in an hour.

Thus, in the production of 1 hour we can make $10 from product A while we can make $ 57 from product B.
