Problem 3-19 (Algorithmic) Better Products, Inc., manufactures three products on two machines. In a typical week, 40 hours are available on each machine. The profit contribution and production time in hours per unit are as follows: Category Product 1 Product 2 Product 3 Profit/unit $39 $51 $18 Machine 1 time/unit 1.5 Machine 2 time/unit Two operators are required for machine 1; thus, 2 hours of labor must be scheduled for each hour of machine 1 time. Only one operator is required for machine 2. A maximum of 90 labor hours is available for assignment to the machines during the coming week.
