Letherin Hides is a company that makes boots specifically targeting college students. Forecasts of sales for the next year are 200 in the summer, 450 in the autumn, and 500 in the winter.
Accessories that are used on the boots are purchased from a supplier for $31.66. The cost of capital is estimated to be 24% per year (or 6% per quarter) ; thus, the holding cost per item is 0.06($31.66) = $1.9 per quarter (rounded figure) . Letherin Hides hires freelance art designers at part-time to craft designs during the summer, and they earn $6 per hour. In the autumn, labor is more difficult to keep, and the owner must pay $6.5 per hour to retain qualified help.

How should production be planned over the three quarters to minimize the combined production and inventory holding costs?
