The Khezal Corporation manufactures two electrical devices for pumps: small and big devices each of which has different power. Both of these products require wiring and testing during the assembly process. Each small device requires 4 hours of wiring and 2 hour of testing and can be sold for a $250 profit. Each big device requires 6 hours of wiring and 4 hours of testing and can be sold for a $150 profit. There are 520 hours of wiring time and 280 hours of testing time available in the next production period and Khezal wants to maximise profit. They need to make at least 20 small and at least 20 big devices.
