    The document provides information about a linear programming problem faced by a toy factory. The factory can produce three types of toys - red, blue, and green. The document gives the time required to complete the assembly, polishing, and painting stages for each toy type, as well as the total hours available each week for each manufacturing stage. It also provides the profit earned from each toy. The objective is to maximize total profit subject to the time constraints. An initial simplex tableau is provided as an example solution, showing a maximum profit of RM375 can be earned by producing 5 units of each toy type.

    1. A godparent decides to invest RM 20,000 at 8% per annum compound interest, to be divided between his two godchildren so that each receives the same amount on their 18 th birthday. Part of the sum was to be invested on one godchilds 12th birthday and part on the other godchilds 14th birthday. What sum would they each receive on their 18th birthday? Answer to the nearest RM. [5 marks]

    2. A manufacturer produced 15,000 parts of computer equipment in one week but, because of damage, some parts were unfit for use. The manufacturer normally made a profit of 33 % on manufacturing costs by selling all the parts produced for RM 8 each but, because of the damaged parts, the profit was reduced to 30% of the manufacturing costs. (a) How many parts were damaged? [5 marks] (b) If the damaged parts were sold for scrap at RM 2 each what percentage of profit was made that week? [3 marks]
