Less: Variable cost     -$50                       $150

Contribution margin     $75                       $75

Units per machine hour  2                      3

CM per machine hour  $50                     $225

rank                                   2                       1

Here the expresso machines should be chosen

Also the number of units would be

= 1,200 × 3
