Question:

Dolphin Motors (not a real company) recently installed a mixedmodel production line at its plant in Bangalore, India. The sales of its minivans and SUVs have declined in recent months as a result of rising gas prices. The Bangalore plant has the capacity to produce 250 vehicles per day. Dolphin Motors has estimated that monthly demand for its cars is 2,200, for minivans 1,100 per month, and for SUVs 600 per month.
