A manager must assign four engineers to projects, one to a project. The leader of project C has indicated that he does not want engineer 2 or 3 on his project. Given the following cost figures for each project-engineer combination, and keeping in mind that two combinations are undesirable, determine assignments such that total cost will be minimized.
$\begin{array}{rrrrr}
& \mathrm{A} & \mathrm{B} & \mathrm{C} & \mathrm{D} \
\hline \text { Engineer }1 & \$ 18 & 12 & 20 & 19 \
2 & 17 & 18 & * & 10 \
3 & 25 & 28 & * & 14 \
4 & 28 & 18 & 24 & 25
\end{array}$
