"UB-sweets" produces only two types of chocolate: A and B. Both the chocolates require Milk and Coco-powder only. To manufacture each unit of A and B, the following quantities are required: • Each unit of A requires 2 units of Milk and 1 unit of Coco-powder • Each unit of B requires 1 unit of Milk and 2 units of Coco-powder UB has a total of 11 units of Milk and 10 units of Coco-powder. On each sale, UB makes a profit of • $6 per unit A sold • $5 per unit B sold. If UB wishes to maximize its profit, how many units of A should it produce? Answer:

A chocolate making company largely produces one particular type of crunchy chocolate bar. Only one of two machines, Machine-1 or Machine-2, can be used to produce this chocolate bar on any given day. The maintenance costs incurred on these two machines per day are $100 and $120, respectively. The manufacturing cost per chocolate bar is $2.5 for Machine-1 and $2 for Machine-2. The maximum daily production capacities for Machine-1 and Machine-2 are 1100 and 1250, respectively. Demand requires that at least 1000 chocolate bars be produced per day. Develop and solve a binary integer programming model for minimizing the total cost. Write all the constraints and objective function. Solve using Solver and write the answer for how many chocolate bars to be produced by each machine and if machine 1 or 2 will be used for the minimum cost
