In Example TMP two different prices were considered for marketing standard mix
with the revised recipes (one-third peanuts in each recipe). Selling standard mix at $5.50 resulted in selling
the minimum amount of the fancy mix and no bulk mix. At $5.25 it was best for profits to sell the maximum
amount of fancy mix and then sell no standard mix. Determine a selling price for standard mix that allows
for maximum profits while still selling some of each type of mix.

If the price of standard mix is set at $5.292, then the profit function has a zero
coefficient on the variable quantity
f. So, we can set f to be any integer quantity in (825; 826........ 960).
All but the extreme values (
f = 825, f = 960) will result in production levels where some of every mix is
manufactured. No matter what value of
f is chosen, the resulting profit will be the same, at $2,664.60.
