a. Develop an aggregate plan using each of the following guidelines and compute the total
cost for your plan. Use a combination of overtime (500 cases per period max. and min.) and
subcontracting (500 cases per period maximum and 200 minimum) to handle variation in
demand.
b. Repeat the plan if the company wants to follow a chase strategy.
