Paperbank is starting a new credit card business operation during the next three months (Jan, Feb, and March). It must decide how many credit cards to issue each month. Two kinds of cards will be issued: regular and gold. The profit will be $50 per month for gold cards, and $20 per month for regular cards. In each month, 5% of the regular cards and 20% of the gold cards will have late payments.
