Maanda For You Ltd is an independent power producer and was recently awarded a large contract by one major electricity supplier. Two maverick brothers, Tom and Tory Capturers, run the company on a full time basis. The company runs two plants, one is manual and the other one is automated. The two brothers appoint specialist technicians on a contract basis. The two Capturers brothers are considering an opportunity to lease expensive machinery that will result in reducing the hours of work required from the specialist technicians.

The following budgeted monthly information is avaible for the two plants.
