Reference no: EM1397274

A tailor makes wool tweed sport coats and wool slacks. He is able to get a shipment of 150 square yard of wool cloth from Scotland each month to make coats and slacks, and he has 200 hours of his own labor to make them each month. A coat requires 3 square yards of wool and 10 hours to make, and a pair of slacks requires 5 square yards of wool and 4 hours to make. The tailor earn $50 in profit from each coat he make and $40 from each pair of slacks. He wants to know how many coats and pairs of slacks to produce to maximize profit.
