The Solis Corporation manufactures two models of industrial welders, the MIG and the TIG. The firm employs 6 technicians, working 180 hours each per month, on its assembly line. Management insists that full employment (that is, all 180 hours of time) be maintained for each worker during next month’s operations. It requires 21 labor-hours to assemble each MIG-1 and 24 labor-hours to assemble each TIG model.
