Friendly Co. produces two products, A and B. The sales
volume for A is at least 80% of the total
sales of both A and B. However, the company cannot sell more than
110 units of A per day. Both
products use one raw material, of which the maximum daily
availability is 300 kg. The usage
rates of the raw material are 2 kg per unit of A, and 4 kg per unit
of B. The profit units for A and
B are $40 and $90, respectively.
Formulate the above problem as a linear programming problem. Then
solve the problem to
determine the most optimal product mix for the company.
