Digital Controls, Inc. (DCI), manufactures two models of a radar gun used by police to monitor the speed of automobiles. Model A has an accuracy of plus or minus 1 mile per hour, whereas the smaller model B has an
accuracy of plus or minus
miles per hour.
For the next week, the company has orders for 100 units of model A and 150 units of model B. Although DCI purchases all the electronic components used in both models, the plastic cases for both models are
manufactured at a DCI plant in Newark, New Jersey. Each model A case requires 4 minutes of injection-molding time and 6 minutes of assembly time. Each model B case requires 3 minutes of injection-molding time and
8 minutes of assembly time. For next week, the Newark plant has 600 minutes of injection-molding time available and 1,080 minutes of assembly time available. The manufacturing cost is $10 per case for model A and $6
per case for model B. Depending upon demand and the time available at the Newark plant, DCI occasionally…
