iron coal steel bar
cost 356.00 244.00 356+2*244
cost 844
in two million coins 2000,000/844 = 2369,668246 or 2369 steel bar units
which will require 1579,333 coal units (two thirds of the steel bar units)
in iron we require 789,666 iron units (one third of the steel units)
so we change to 789 units of iron and 789*2=1578 units of coal and make 2367 unit of steel bars
expending 2367*844 = 1997748
expected gross profit (1254-844)*2367= 970470 coins
use the rest of the coin for salaries and energy
