Abdul has received an order for 2,000 kurtas from a big retail chain. They will collect the finished pre-packaged kurtas directly from the factories, saving him the selling cost. To deliver this order, he can use multiple factories for production. Which of the following options will ensure maximum profit from this order?
Explanation:
Here, selling cost would be added to the profit.
F1: Profit = 775 + 60 = 835
F2: Profit = 800 + 45 = 845
F2: Profit = 900+60 = 960
F4: Profit = 800 + 68 = 868
F5: Profit = 600 + 75 = 675
F6: Profit = 875 + 65 = 940
F7: Profit = 500 + 85 = 585
F8: Profit = 600 + 70 = 670
Maximum profit margin is from factory 3. But it can only produce 800 kurtas.
Next best profit margin is from factory 6. It can produce additional 1100 kurtas.
∴ 1900 kurtas can be produced by factory 3 and 6 together.
Remaining 100 kurtas should be produced by factory 4 since it has the third highest profit margin.
Hence option (d).
