ADB plc is organised on a divisional basis. Two of the divisions are the Components division and the Product
division
The Components division produces components P, Q, R. The Components are sold to a wide variety of customer
including
Product division at the same price. The Product division uses one unit of component P,Q,and R respectively in pr
K,L and M.
Recently Product division has been force to work below capacity because of limits in the supply of components
from Component division. ADB's Managing Director has therefore directed component divisions to sell all its ou
product division.

Components division has a maximum out put capacity 50,000 of which each component must number at least

from Component division. Product division is able to sell all the out put it can produce at the current selling
price.
