The XYZ company has been a producer of electronic circuits for Television sets and certain printed circuit boards for Radios. The company has decided to expand into full scale production and marketing of AM and AM-FM radios. It has built a new plant that can operate 48 hours per week. Production of an Am radio in the new plant will require 2 hours and production of AM. FM radio will require 3 hours. Each AM radio will contribute Rs.40 to profit, while an AM-FM radio will contribute Rs 80 to profits. The marketing department, after extensive research, has determined that a maximum of 15 AM radio, and 10AM-FM radios can be sold each week, formulate a L.P. model to determine the optimal production mix of AM and AM-FM radios that will maximize profits and solve the problem using Graphical method.
