Each plant when built will operate at its maximum capacity. The total production cost and the selling price per liter of photographic chemicals are $ 10 and $ 15, respectively. If each plant produces more than the market demand, the company must dispose of the photographic chemicals through a waste management vendor at $3 per liter.
The expanded facilities will produce up to their maximum daily capacity. The company has committed to satisfying the market demand up to its full daily production capacity for each facility. The following table provides information on the daily capacity for each plan, daily market demand, and the probability for each market demand.
