The maintenance costs incurred on these two machines per day are $100 and $120, respectively. The manufacturing cost per chocolate bar is $2.5 for Machine-1 and $2 for Machine-2. The maximum daily production capacity for Machine-1 and Machine-2 are 1100 and 1250, respectively. Demand requires that at least 1000 chocolate bars be produced per day. Develop and solve an binary integer programming model for minimizing the total cost.
