Answer: $16,925.90 increase
Explanation:
Company already has the excess capacity to handle this order so the fixed costs will not be included as they would have already been incurred.
Cost of manufacturing the trees would be:
= Variable cost + Fixed cost
= ((51.61 + 3.80 + 1.00 + 8.26 for white tree) * 230 trees) + 5,000 for molds
= (64.67 * 230) + 5,000
= $19,874.10
Incremental revenue = 230 trees * 160
= $36,800
Incremental operating income = 36,800 - 19,874.1
= $16,925.90 increase

Answer:
(a) Linear model
Subject to:
(b) Standard form:
Subject to:
Explanation:
Given
Solving (a): Formulate a linear programming model
From the question, we understand that:
A has a profit of $9 while B has $7
So, the linear model is:
Subject to:
Where:
Solving (b): The model in standard form:
To do this, we introduce surplus and slack variable "s"
For 
inequalities, we add surplus (add s)
Otherwise, we remove slack (minus s)
So, the standard form is:
So, the linear model is:
Subject to:
