A company makes two types of sofas, regular and long, at two locations, one in Nottingham and one in London. The plant in Nottingham has a daily operating budget of £45,000 and can produce at most 300 sofas daily in any combination. It costs £150 to make a regular sofa and £200 to make a long sofa at the Nottingham plant. The London plant has a daily operating budget of £36,000, can produce at most 250 sofas daily in any combination and makes a regular sofa for £135 and a long sofa for £180. The company wants to limit production to a maximum of 250 regular sofas and 350 long sofas each day. If the company makes a profit of £50 on each regular sofa and £70 on each long sofa, how many of each type should be made at each plant in order to maximize profit? What is the maximum profit?
