why do we need to divide by 0.9 by not *90%?
Q2) The table contains information for the two products of a company.
product X Y respectively :
contribution per unit $12 , $9
machine hours required per unit 6, 3
estimated sales demand 200 , 200
required machine hours 1200, 600
machine capacity limited to 1200 hours
What is the maximum possible contribution?
Ans : $3000
90%=90/100=0.9
Q2)machine capacity is da limiting factor
Find contribution per machine hour.
12/6=2 9/3=3
product2 is contributing da most so production of it shud b max dat is 600/3=200units
this tkes up 600 machine hrs,da rest 1200-600=600 is used in production of product1.
600/6=100,r da units of product1 2 b produced.
Max Contribution=200*9+100*12=$3000
