Part $1$

Matthew$$ Bailey, as manager of Designs by$$ Bailey, is upgrading his CAD software. The$$ high$-$performance $($HP$)$ software rents for $ $3$ comma $000$ per month per workstation. The$$ standard$-$performance $($SP$)$ software rents for $ $2$ comma $000$ per month per workstation. The productivity figures that he has available suggest that the HP software is faster for his kind of design.$$ Therefore, with the HP software he will need $5$ engineers and with the SP software he will need $6.$ This translates into a variable cost of $ $200$ per drawing for the HP system and $ $240$ per drawing for the SP system.
