Question

The company expects to sell 7,200 bottles of SlickTone in the first quarter, 6,200 in the second quarter, 10,900 in the third quarter, and 8,900 in the fourth quarter.

A bottle of SlickTone requires 5 ounces of Chemical A and 3.5 ounces of Chemical B.

There are 1,700 bottles of SlickTone, 4,900 ounces of Chemical A, and 1,600 ounces of Chemical B on hand at the beginning of the first quarter.

At the end of the fourth quarter, the company must have 1,000 bottles of SlickTone, 8,600 ounces of Chemical A, and 3,900 ounces of Chemical B to meet its needs in the first quarter of 2016.
