listed below use this constrained resource.
Required:
a. Rank the products in order of their current profitability from the most profitable to

be emphasized. Show your work!
b. Assume that sufficient constraint time is available to satisfy demand for all but the
least profitable product. Up to how much should the company be willing to pay to
acquire more of the constrained resource?

15) Chow Corporation manufactures children's chairs made of PVS plastic tubing and

below:
In the second stage, Machining costs are assigned to products using machine-hours
(MHs) and Order Filling costs are assigned to products using the number of orders. The
