The forecasted demand and the expected production days for months March to August in 2013 are given below: Month Forecasted demand (units) Production days March 2400 23 April 4500 20 May 2600 22 June 7000 20 July 2000 23 August 3000 22 ABC works 8 regular hours in each working day and past experience shows that one worker takes 1 hour to produce one tile.
