Your company produces two kinds of industrial microwave ovens, the Grande and the Inferno. Components for both ovens need to be machined and then assembled. It takes 4 h to machine the components for the Grande and 3h to machine the components for the Inferno. Your plant has a capacity of 100 h machine hours available per day. It takes 2 hours to assemble the Grande, and 3 hours to assemble to Inferno.Your plant has 48 hours of assembly time available per day. At most you would be able to sell 15 Grandes per day, while you couldn't sell more than 20 Infernos per day. If each Grande generates $2500 of profit, and each Inferno $2000 of profit, what combination of Grandes and Infernos should you recommend your plant builds each day in order to maximize profits?
