Work centers $W,X,Y,$ and $Z$ are available for $40$ hours per week and have $no$ setup time when switching between products. Market demand for each product $is80$ units per week.

$In$ the questions that follow, the traditional method refers $to$ maximizing the contribution margin per unit for each product, and the bottleneck method refers $to$ maximizing the

contribution margin per minute $at$ the bottleneck for each product.

Use the information $in$ Table $7\mathrm{.}5.$ Using the bottleneck method, what $is$ the optimal product mix $(consider$ variable costs only$-$overhead $is$ not included $in$ this profit calculation$)?$

A company makes four products that have the following characteristics: Product A sells for $$50$ but needs $$10of$ materials and $$15of$ labor $to$ produce; Product $B$ sells for $$75$ but

needs $$30of$ materials and $$15of$ labor $to$ produce; Product $C$ sells for $$100$ but needs $$50of$ materials and $$30of$ labor $to$ produce; Product $D$ sells for $$150$ but needs $$75of$

materials and $$40of$ labor $to$ produce. The processing requirements for each product $on$ each $of$ the four machines are shown $in$ the table.
