Answer:

D. ​10,400 units of A and none of B

Step-by-step explanation:

product A

contribution margin = $41 - $32

= $9

product B

contribution margin = $29 - $19

= $10

at full capacity:

contribution for product A = 10400*$9

= $93600

contribution for product B = 5900*$10

= $59000

Since the contribution is higher for product A, The company should produce 10400 units of product A and none of B.
