Q2-12.
d
Answer
Explanation
The question requires that you use the table to calculate the profit in one (1) month, and the
number of pieces produced based on the maximum workload. “Person-days” is a unit of
workload. One (1) person-day represents the labor that one (1) person performs in one (1)
day.
Profit in one (1) month = (Profit per product) × (Production capacity per month)
Product A 200,000 × 25 = 5,000,000 yen
Product B 160,000 × 30 = 4,800,000 yen
Product C 90,000 × 40 = 3,600,000 yen
From this, the profit in one (1) month can be maximized by producing Product A, Product B,
and Product C in that order.
Workload in one (1) month = (Workload per product) × (Production capacity per month)
Product A 4× 25 = 100 person-days
Product B 4 × 30 = 120 person-days
Product C 3 × 40 = 120 person-days
From this, 340 person-days (100 + 120 + 120 person-days) are required to produce all of the
products.
In order to maximize the profit, taking into consideration the maximum workload is 280 person-days, the production capacity for each product is as follows:
Product A 25 pieces (100 person-days)
Product B 30 pieces (120 person-days)
Product C 20 pieces (60 person-days = 280 − 220 person-days)
Therefore, the correct answer is d).
