2 hours of drilling. Each heater must go through 2 hours of wiring and 1 hour of drilling. During the next production period, 240 hours of wiring time are available and up to 140 hours of drilling time may be used. Each air conditioner sold yields a profit of $25.
Each heater assembled may be sold for a $19 profit.
The aim of the objective function for Attaran Corporation should be to Maximize the objective value.
The optimum solution is:
Number of air conditioners to be produced = 0 (round your response to two decimal places).
Number of heaters to be produced = (round your response to two decimal places).
