Question

A company makes two products, televisions and DVD players. The televisions require two hours of labor and $100 of materials per television. The profit per television is $300. The DVD player requires three hours of labor and $50 of materials per DVD player. The profit per player is $150. The company can afford to spend $1000 each week for the cost of the material. If an employee works forty hours a week, how many televisions and/or DVD players should the employee make in order to maximize the company

Explanation / Answer

Tv costs 2 hours, 100 materials and profits 300

dvd player costs 3 hours, 50 materials and profits 150

If you want to know the region where your max profit is then first imagine you sold only tv's

you could sell only 10 due to material limits, making 3,000

If you sold only dvd players, you could sell only 13 by labor limits, making 1,950

So, hopefully your number will be over $3,000 when you mingle the 2 product quantities made.
