Gupta Furniture manufactures two different types of china cabinets, a French provincial model and a Danish modern model. Each cabinet produced must go through three departments: carpentry, painting, and finishing. The accompanying table contains all relevant information concerning production times per cabinet produced and production capacities for each operation per day, along with net revenue per unit produced. The firm has a contract with a Miami distributor to produce a minimum of 300 of each cabinet per week (or 60 cabinets per day). Owner Sushil Gupta would like to determine a product mix to maximize his daily revenue.

Formulate this as an LP problem and solve.
