The cost of carrying a unit of inventory from one week to the next is $4 for each product. One unit of unsatisfied demand costs $10 for product A and $15 for product B. Demand data are also given below. The line is shutdown & cleaned each weekend. as a result, if a product is produced in a week the appropriate setup cost is incurred.
