A manufacturer makes a production plan subject to certainconstraints of resources with the goal of maximizing its revenues.Air conditioner sells at $2900 per unit, smart TV sells at $3200per unit, Stereo sells at $7200 per unit, and Desktop sells at$5400 per unit. To produce one unit of AC, 4 units of Electroniccomponents are needed, 1 unit of Non-electronic components isneeded, 2 units of Assembly line time are needed; To produce oneunit of Smart TV, 4 units of Electronic components are needed, 2units of Non-electronic components are needed, 1 unit of Assemblyline time is needed; To produce one unit of Stereo, 9 units ofElectronic components are needed, 6 units of Non-electroniccomponents are needed, and 5 units of Assembly line time areneeded; To produce one unit of Desktop, 3 units of Electroniccomponents are needed, 3 units of Non-electronic components areneeded, and 2 units of Assembly line time are needed. The availablecapacity for Electronic components is 4700 units; the capacity forNon-electronic components is 4500 units; the capacity for theassembly line time is 2500 units.
(1) If 10 more units of Assembly time were available, how wouldthe optimal revenue change?
(2) If the price of a Smart TV changes from $3200 to $4200 perunit, how would the optimal production plan change?
