Greenville estimates that the production time for each bookshelf model is 0.7 hour and the production time for each floor model is 1 hour. The raw material costs are $10 for each bookshelf model and $12 for each floor model.

Labor costs are S22 per hour using regular production time and $33 using overtime.

Greenville has up to 2400 hours of regular pro- duction time available each month and up to 1000 additional hours of overtime available each month.
