Part $2$

Assume that Carlton is permitted to employ some$$ uncertified, part$-$time$$ instructors, provided they represent no more than $15$ percent of the total workforce hours in any quarter. Each$$ part$-$time instructor can work up to $240$ hours per$$ quarter, with no overtime or undertime cost. Labor costs for$$ part$-$time instructors are $$10$ per hour. Hiring and training costs are $$1,750$ per uncertified$$ instructor, and there are no layoff costs.
