    Situation 2.
    R.T. produces two telephone models each of which must go through three workstations for manufacturing assembly and quality control. At this time the
    company is deciding between two Assembly processes and only one of the Processes (1 or 2) will be used. The amount of time required for each model in each of
    the work areas is given in the following table. Model Manufacturing Assembly Process 1 Assembly Process 2 Quality Control
    Standard 7 minutes 5 minutes 2 minutes 2 minutes
    Trimline 5 minutes 6 minutes 4 minutes 3 minutes

    R.T. employs 11 workers who each work a 7.5 hour day and have been trained to work on any of the three processes. Accounting has stated that the cost of each
    Manufacturing minute is $1.10 each Assembly minute $0.25 or $0.30 respectively depending which process is chosen and each Quality Control minute $0.10 for
    a Standard Model. For the Trimline model the costs are $0.25 $0.85 or $1.00 (Process 1 and 2) and $0.55. If R.T. sell for $7 the standard models and $10 the
    Trimline models what should be the optimal daily production schedule.
