A company has a manufacturing process with five workstations: V, W, X, Y. and Z. Each workstation has one machine and one worker. The company operates 40 hours per week. The manufacturing process can be used to produce 2 different products: A and B. The estimated processing times are as follows: product A, V = 5, W = 13, X = 14, Y = 0, Z = 5 minutes, product B. V = 9, W = 0, X = 20, Y = 18, Z = 21 minutes, Thus, each unit of product A must be processed 5 minutes on machine V, 13 minutes on machine W. 14 minutes on machine X, 0 minutes on machine Y, and 5 minutes on machine Z. The weekly demand for product A and B are 150 and 90 units. How many units of product A can be produced and how many units of product B can be produced if the company produces product B first, then product A second. Shown brief calculation and explanation
