The organization has only two weeks to construct the set. The theater has two carpenters who work up to 12 hours a week, each at $10 an hour. Additionally, the theater has a scenic artist who can work 15 hours per week to paint as needed at $14 per hour. The set needs 20 flats (walls), two hanging drops, and three wooden tables (props). The number of hours required for each piece for carpentry and painting is shown below. Flats, hanging drops, and props can also be rented at a cost of $75, $500, and $350 each, respectively.
