Use the information to answer the next few questions
Cully furniture buys 2 products for resale: big shelves and medium shelves (M). Each big shelf cats $500 and requires 100 cubic feet of storage space, and for each medium shelf costs $350 and required 90 cubic feet of storage space. The company has $75,000 to invest in shelves this week, and the warehouse has 18,000 cubic feet available for storage. Profit for each big shelf is $300 and for each medium shelf is $150.

10) The big shelves quantity for the above models optimal solution is
A) 0
B) 214.29
C) 180
D) 150
E) 200
Solution
1. B) The given statement is False because the profit is given for this problem and one has to maximize the profit.
2. A) The model should be classified as deterministic, since all of the values can be known with certainty. There is not any probability associated with the problem.
3. G) 500B + 350M <= 75,000
4. B) 100B + 90M <= 18,000
5. D) 2
