Alwaysrain irrigation inc would like to determine capacity


AlwaysRain Irrigation, Inc., would like to determine capacity requirements for the next four years. Currently two production lines are in place for making bronze and plastic sprinklers. Three types of sprinklers are available in both bronze and plastic: 90-degree nozzle sprinklers, 180-degree nozzle sprinklers, and 360-degree nozzle sprinklers. Management has forecast demand for the next four years as follows: YEARLY DEMAND 1 (IN 000s) 2 (IN 000s) 3 (IN 000s) 4 (IN 000s) Plastic 90 35 41 60 59 Plastic 180 15 17 16 20 Plastic 360 46 60 68 69 Bronze 90 7 7 5 13 Bronze 180 4 4 7 8 Bronze 360 11 12 14 20 Both production lines can produce all the different types of nozzles. The bronze machines needed for the bronze sprinklers require three operators and can produce up to 14,000 sprinklers. The plastic injection molding machine needed for the plastic sprinklers requires three operators and can produce up to 230,000 sprinklers. Three bronze machines and only one injection molding machine are available. What are the capacity requirements for the next four years? (Assume that there is no learning.)
