Novacook Ltd makes two types of cooker, one electric and one gas. There are four stages in the production of each of these, with the following features:
Each electric cooker has a variable cost of £200 and a selling price of £300, and each gas cooker has a variable cost of £160 and a selling price of £240. Fixed overheads are £60,000 a week and the company works a 50-week year. The marketing department suggest maximum sales of 800 electric and 1,250 gas cookers a week.
