Patuxent Electronics, Inc. sells ten types of telecom components (C). The company has recently expanded its business and is able to manufacture (and sell) three types of intermediate modules and two types of finished products using the company's available inventory of telecom components. The bill of materials (BOM) below, shows the required components to assemble each module (M) and finished product (P).

C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6, C7, C8, C9, C10
Modules:
M1: C1, C3, C5, C8 M2: C4, C6
