The government of an island nation is in the process of deciding how to spend its limited income. It has $7 million left in its budget and eight programs to choose among.

The programs and their funding requests are:
- Hurricane preparedness: $2.5 million
- Harbor improvements: $1 million
- School music program: $0.5 million
- Senate office building remodeling: $1.5 million
- Agricultural subsidy program: $2 million
- National radio: $0.5 million
- Small business loan program: $3 million
- International airport: $4 million
