From $2021-2023,$ many industries across the world faced a shortage of comp$4$

particular, the auto industry faced a shortage of key chips needed to manufact

Below is hypothetical information for a car manufacturer, Niyonda. Before the chip

shortage, the Niyonda produced and sold $570$ sedans, $373$ trucks, and $428$ SUVs every

week. Each vehicle required one specialized computer chip. Now Niyonda only has access to

$614$ computer chips per week and must decide how many of each product line to produce.

Each vehicle requires $1$ chip.

The United Auto Workers $($UAW$)$ union has threatened a major strike if the Niyonda tries to

cut labor hours. Niyonda also cannot reduce its fixed overhead. However, materials, variable

overhead, and selling expenses are variable in the short term.

Below is a segment income statement for Niyonda for the last week before the chip

shortage began. Use the Theory of Constraints to maximize Niyonda's operating profit. The

constraining factor is the number of chips. What will Niyonda's weekly operating profit be$?$

Assume that per$-$unit revenue and variable costs remain the same and that total fixed costs

remain the same. Also, assume that Niyonda can sell a maximum of $570$ sedans, $373$ trucks,

and $428$ SUVs every week. Indicate an operating profit!
