The single milling machine at Fred's Manufacturing was severely overloaded last year. The plant operates 8 hours per day, 5 days per week, and 50 weeks per year. Management prefers a capacity cushion of 20 percent. Two major types of products are routed through the milling machine. The annual demand for product A is 4,000 units and 3,000 units for product B. The batch size for A is 20 units and 30 units for B. The standard processing time for A is 0.5 hours/unit and 0.8 for B. The standard setup time for product A is 2 hours and 8 hours for product B. How many new milling machines are required if Fred's does not resort to any short-term capacity options?
