15 Total                                 $525,000.00       $120.00

Selling price per unit = $160

Sales volume = 27,000 units

Sales revenue = $4,320,000 ($160 * 27,000)

Variable production cost = $106 per unit

Total variable production costs = $2,862,000 ($106 * 27,000)

Fixed production cost =                     200,000

Total production cost =                $3,062,000

Quickbrush Paint Company is developing a linear program to determine the optimal quantities of ingredient A and ingredient B to
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

A. 0.9x + 0.3y ≤ 10,000

Explanation:

Given

x \to oil based plant

y \to water based plant

The data can be represented in tabular form as:

\begin{array}{ccc}{} & {A} & {B}  & {x} & {90\%} & {10\%}  & {y} & {30\%} & {70\%} & {} & {10000} & {5000}\ \end{array}

Considering only A, we have the following constraints:

A \to 90\% * x + 30\% * y

A \to 0.9x + 0.3y

Since the company currently has 10000 of A.

The above constraint implies that, the mixture cannot exceed 10000.

So, we have:

A \to 0.9x + 0.3y \le 10000

<em>Hence, (A) is correct</em>
