Beginning inventory in May is $408$ complete $($a complete two$-$piece includes both top and bottom$)$ bathing suits. Bathing suits cost $$40$ o produce and carrying cost is $36$ percent per year.

Develop an aggregate plan that uses the $12$ full$-$time employees each month and a minimum number of temporary employees. Assume hat all employees will produce at their full potential each month. Calfulate the inventory carrying cost associated with your plan using planned end$-$of$-$month levels.

Note: Round "Inventory cost" to $2$ decimal places.
