A computer plant produces mice, keyboards and flash drives. A mouse has a profit of $12.39/unit, and to produce it takes 0.32 hours of machine time and 0.45 hours of labor. A keyboard has a profit of $10.10/unit, and to produce it takes 0.29 hours of machine time and 0.21 hours of labor. A flash drive has a profit of $8.22/unit, and to produce it takes 0.22 hours of machine time and 0.16 hours of labor. Each month, a total of 4,000 hours of machine time and 5,000 hours of labor are available. The maximum monthly demand is 1,000 mice, 8,000 keyboards and 8,500 flash drives. How many of each (to 0 decimal places) should the company make each month to maximize its profit and what is that maximum profit?
