3. YUNDILA MWELEKA Company Limited has two bottling plants one located at MATEKA
and the other at LIZABONI. Each plant produces three drinks; NGONI, JEMA and
MABOBO. The number of bottles produced per day are as shown below.
DRINK/PLANT MATEKA LIZABONI DEMAND
NGONI 1,500 1,500 20,000
JEMA 3,000 1,000 40,000
MABOBO 2,000 5,000 44,000
The operating cost per day for plants of MATEKA and LIZABONI are Tsh 50,000/= and
Tshs 20,000/= respectively.

which will still meeting the market demand?
(b) Find the overall minimum cost.
