industry. Among the direct materials utilized in the production process of the company, fabrics and
sewing threads are the decisive elements. In the cost category, labor cost and materials cost constitute
the major proportion of the cost of finished apparels. The time required to process a unit of each
product is the
The amount of resources (material, cost, and time) employed to produce each unit of the products along
with availability of the resources per month and a profit per unit that can be generated from the sale of
each product is given below in the table.

1. The variables
Let the number of Polo T-shirt produced be x
Let the number of Basic T-shirt produced be y
2. The objective
The objective is to maximize the profit
So, maximize: Z = 9x + 8y
3. The constraints
Fabric consumption: 313x + 198y <= 9,416,400
Thread consumption: 230x + 110y <= 6,659,530
Labor cost: 24x + 10y <= 5,04,142
Material cost: 60x + 40y <= 2,487,921
Cutting time availability: 1.8x + 1.1y <= 86,575.5
Sewing time availability: 12.65x + 9y <= 6,67,584
Finishing time availability: 2x + 1.3y <= 92,907
