Kataleigh company manufactures dining room tables and chairs  each table requires 50 board feet and 3 hours of labor. Each chair takes 20 board feet and 4 hours of labor. The manufacturer has 3,300 board feet of lumber available and a staff table to provide 380 hours of labor. Finally, the manufacturer has determined that there is a net profit of P100 for each chair sold and P200 for every table sold.For simplicity, we assume that needed materials (such as nail and varnish) are insufficient quantities. How many table and chairs should the company manuffacture in order to maximize its profits, assuming that each item manufactured is sold. Use Simplex Method to solve the problem.
