Backlogging is not allowed (L.e. demand has to be satisfied). Initially (at the beginning of month 1) you have 30 tables, 70 chairs and 15 desks in inventory initially. One table requires  units of raw material, one chair requires  units of raw material and one desk requires  units of raw material. Each month, 400 units of raw material is available. One table requires 5 hours of labor, one chair requires 4 hours of labor and one desk requires 3 hours of labor. In months 1 and 2 , 1000 hour of labor hours is available.
