Belsky Manufacturing makes three models of fans,identified by the unimaginative names of A,B,and C.The fans are made out of nuts,bolts,wire,blades,and motors.The current inventory levels and parts list for each type of fan is shown in the table.
Fan A sells for $18,Fan B sells for $25,and Fan C sells for $30.
