Allen Furniture is a manufacturer of hand-crafted furniture. At the start of January, Allen employs 20 trained craftspeople. They have forecaster their labor needs over the next 12 months as shown in the table below. Each trained crafts person provides 200 labor-hours per month and is paid a wage of $3,000 per month. Hiring new craftspeople requires advertising, interviewing, and then training at a cost of $2,500 per hire. New hires are called apprentices for their first month. Apprentices spend their first month observing and learning. They are paid $2,000 for the month, but provide no labor. In their second month, apprentices are reclassified as trained craftspeople. The union contract allows for firing a crafts person at the beginning of a month, but $1,500 must be given in severance pay. Moreover, at most 10% of the trained craftspeople can be fired in any month. Allen would like to start next year with at least 25 trained craftspeople. How many apprentices should be hired and how many craftspeople should be fired in each month to meet the labor requirements at the minimum possible cost? Labor Requirements (hours) Jan. Feb. Mar. Apr. May June July Aug. Sept. Oct. Nov. Dec. 4,000 4,000 4,200 4,200 3,000 2,800 3,000 4,000 4,500 5,000 5,200 4,800 (a.) Visualize where you want to finish. What numbers will Allen require?
