Question 1196498: Cassy Finance Company has a total of N$20 million earmarked for home loans and automobile loans.
On the average, home loans will have a 10% rate of return on the loans given out while automobile
loans will yield a 12% rate of return on the loans extended. Management has also stipulated that the
total amount of home loans should be atleast four times the total amount of automobile loans. Use
the graphical method to determine the total amount of loans the company should extend to each of
the two categories of customers in order to maximise the rate of return on the loans extended.
