Candidate view

A dairy plant in Gujarat that cannot keep up in summer

The prompt

A dairy in Gujarat, India bottles flavoured milk. In summer, shops want 5,500 bottles an hour, and the plant runs 16 hours a day. Each bottle earns INR 6 of contribution (price minus the costs that move with each bottle). The steps, machines and rates are in the table with this case. The plant manager wants to buy a faster filling machine. What should the dairy do? (The dairy is fictional and the figures are illustrative.)
