Sarahs organic soap company makes four kinds of organic


Sarah's Organic Soap Company makes..

Sarah's Organic Soap Company makes four kinds of organic liquid soap- "regular," "lavender," "citrus," and "tea tree." Demand for the four scents are 125, 130, 85, and 55 kgs per hour respectively. Sarah's production process can produce any soap at the rate of 425 kgs per hour, but 1.3 hours are needed to switch between scents. During those switchover times, the process doesn't produce any soap. Sarah wants to choose a production schedule that (1) cycles repeatedly through the four scents, (2) meets the required demand and (3) minimizes the amount of inventory held.

How many kgs of "regular" should Sarah produce before switching over to another scent?
