Exhibit 5-2
A small engineering firm employs one civil engineer, two engineering technicians, and one summer intern. The types of projects the firm does includes surveys (typically 7 per month), designs (5 per month), and construction project plans (four per month). The times, in hours, required for each employee to complete teach type of project are shown below. Based on their capabilities and time spent on travel and administrative tasks, the engineer, tech 1, tech 2, and intern can handle 5, 4, 4, and 3 projects per month, respectively.

-Refer to Exhibit 5-2.Suppose Tech 2 will not be available during the next month.Keeping the same number of design and construction plan projects,how many survey projects would the firm be able to do
What would be the revised assignment plan in that case
