Acertain corporation has three branch plants with excess production capacity. fortunately, the corporation has a new product ready to begin production, and all three plants have this capability, so some of the excess capacity can be used in this way. this product can be made in 3 sizes (large, medium, and small) that yield a net unit profit of $420, $360, and $300, respectively. plants 1, 2, and 3 have the excess capacity to produce 750, 900, and 450 units per day of this product, regardless of the size or combination of sizes involved. the amount of available in-process storage space also imposes a limitation on the production rates of the new product. plants 1, 2, and 3 have 13,000, 12,000, and 5,000 square feet of inprocess storage available for a day’s production of this product. each unit of the large, medium, and small sizes produced per day requires 20, 15, and 12 square feet, respectively. sales forecasts indicate that if available, 900, 1200, and 750 units of the large, medium, and small sizes would be sold per day. at each plant, some employees will need to be laid off unless most of the plant’s excess production capacity can be used to produce the new product. to avoid layoffs if possible, management has decided that the plants should use the same percentage of their excess capacity to produce the new product. management wishes to know how much of each size should be produced by each plant to maximize profit.

Employees at a library check out books to patrons. books have an isbn and a name. the library sometimes has multiple copies of the same book. books have one or more authors. a patron is an individual who has an active (non-expired) library card. for each library card, we store the person's first and last names and their address. for each employee, we store their employee id, current salary, first and last name and their address. we also store the employee id of their current manager. each time we check out a book to a patron we need to store the date of the transaction, the employee who checked out the book to the patron, and the library card of the patron. some employees have library cards. if an employee patron turns in a book late, the fine that they pay is a percentage of their salary. some employees are authors who have library cards—they are allowed to check out as many books as they like.
