Assortment Plan: (25 points) As the buyer for women's fashion tops (sweaters), you need to purchase long-sleeve, cable knit, solid-color, 50/50 blend, acrylic/cotton sweaters from two vendors, Calvin Klein (CK) and Tommy Hilfiger (TH). You have a $20,000 budget that will be divided in the following distribution- CK, 75 percent and TH, 25 percent. Each CK sweater will cost $15 while each TH sweater will cost $21. IMPOK.
