Project: Portfolio Selection · A Toy Market

Lesson 4

Nikolai Chukhin · Alexander S. Kulikov

In the same toy market, the best feasible score under budget \(10\) is \(10\). One way to get it is to buy ALP, BET, and CYB, with price \(2+3+5=10\) and score \(1+4+5=10\). Another way is to buy BET and DYN, with price \(3+7=10\) and score \(4+6=10\). So the optimum can be reached by genuinely different portfolios.

Problem. What is the maximum score among all portfolios whose price is at most \(12\)?
