A coffee maker vendor has set up two coffee machines, Machine 1 and Machine 2, inside an organization. The service cost incurred on Machine 1 and Machine 2 is $100 and $80, respectively. The production cost of coffee is $2 per mug for Machine 1 and $3 per mug for Machine 2. There is no service provided by the vendor on Sundays. The weekly production capacity is 1000 mugs for Machine 1 and 1200 mugs for Machine 2, and thereafter the machine needs to be serviced before any extra mug of coffee is to be served. Due to Christmas, the employee attendance at the organization is going to be low and only one machine has to be used to serve at least 800 mugs of coffee in that week in order to minimize the total cost.

Formulate and solve the integer programming model that could be used to determine the coffee machine which minimizes the cost (give decision variables with specific constraints, and Excel Solver solution)
