The objective of the theory of constraints is to maximize throughput contribution - this is the revenue generated by selling products minus the direct cost of those products. At the same time, the theory aims to minimize operating costs. Therefore, the best choice is to maximize throughput contribution and minimize operating costs, which is represented by choice D - maximize minimize.
