- In Example 3, if the accountant earns a profit of 100 on each individual return and a profit of 175 on each business return, find the maximum profit. An accountant prepares tax returns for individuals and for small businesses. On average, each individual return requires 3 hours of her time and 1 hour of computer time. Each business return requires 4 hours of her time and 2 hours of computer time. Because of other business considerations, her time is limited to 240 hours, and the computer time is limited to 100 hours. If she earns a profit of 80 on each individual return and a profit of 150 on each business return, how many returns of each type should she prepare to maximize her profit?arrow_forwardA company manufactures two fertilizers, x and y. Each 50-pound bag of fertilizer requires three ingredients, which are available in the limited quantities shown in the table. The profit on each bag of fertilizer x is 6 and on each bag of y is 5. How many bags of each product should be produced to maximize the profit? Ingredient Number of Pounds in Fertilizer x Number of Pounds in Fertilizer y Total number of Pounds Available Nitrogen 6 10 20,000 Phosphorus 8 6 16,400 Potash 6 4 12,000arrow_forwardA manufacturer produces two models of television stands. The table at the left shows the times (in hours) required for assembling, staining, and packaging the two models. The total times available for assembling, staining, and packaging are 3750 hours, 8950 hours, and 2650 hours, respectively. The profits per unit are $30 for model I and $40 for model II. What is the optimal inventory level for each model? What is the optimal profit?arrow_forward
