Alternatively, the rule might be being misinterpreted in order to drive more gross profit per order (even though the GM on B is greater than that of F, when revenue is low it's $ gross profit, not GM, that drives things).
I feel like if one had the data and did the analysis, the lost GP on abandoned bev only orders would outweigh the marginal GP on bundled orders, but I like where your head is at.
