units. The policy variable for center 1 is set at

0.08.

The average waiting time for a container of gadjits is

0.07

day, and

0.07

day is needed to produce a container. The container for widjits holds

45

units, and the policy variable for center 2 is

0.06.

The average waiting time per container of widjits is

0.16

day, and the time required to process a container is
