Contribution margin means the margin that is left with the company after recovering variable cost out of revenue earned by selling smart phones. The formula for contribution margin is as follows:
Contribution margin = Sales - Variable cost.
Similarly contribution margin ratio = Contribution/sales

The objective function for a linear program to maximize contribution margin from the set of three products is:
Multiple Choice
Z = $3A + $2.50B + $5C.
Z = A + B + C.
Z = A + $0.50B + $2C.
Z = $3A + $3B + $4C.
Z = $4A + $3.50B + $6C.
