- The Pigskin Company produces footballs. Pigskin must decide how many footballs to produce each month. The company has decided to use a six-month planning horizon. The forecasted monthly demands for the next six months are 10,000, 15,000, 30,000, 35,000, 25,000, and 10,000. Pigskin wants to meet these demands on time, knowing that it currently has 5000 footballs in inventory and that it can use a given months production to help meet the demand for that month. (For simplicity, we assume that production occurs during the month, and demand occurs at the end of the month.) During each month there is enough production capacity to produce up to 30,000 footballs, and there is enough storage capacity to store up to 10,000 footballs at the end of the month, after demand has occurred. The forecasted production costs per football for the next six months are 12.50, 12.55, 12.70, 12.80, 12.85, and 12.95, respectively. The holding cost incurred per football held in inventory at the end of any month is 5% of the production cost for that month. (This cost includes the cost of storage and also the cost of money tied up in inventory.) The selling price for footballs is not considered relevant to the production decision because Pigskin will satisfy all customer demand exactly when it occursat whatever the selling price is. Therefore. Pigskin wants to determine the production schedule that minimizes the total production and holding costs. Can you guess the results of a sensitivity analysis on the initial inventory in the Pigskin model? See if your guess is correct by using SolverTable and allowing the initial inventory to vary from 0 to 10,000 in increments of 1000. Keep track of the values in the decision variable cells and the objective cell.The Pigskin Company produces footballs. Pigskin must decide how many footballs to produce each month.

The selling price for footballs is not considered relevant to the production decision because Pigskin will satisfy all customer demand exactly when it occursat whatever the selling price is. Therefore. Pigskin wants to determine the production schedule that minimizes the total production and holding costs. As indicated by the algebraic formulation of the Pigskin model, there is no real need to calculate inventory on hand after production and constrain it to be greater than or equal to demand. An alternative is to calculate ending inventory directly and constrain it to be nonnegative. Modify the current spreadsheet model to do this. (Delete rows 16 and 17, and calculate ending inventory appropriately. Then add an explicit non-negativity constraint on ending inventory.)The Pigskin Company produces footballs. Pigskin must decide how many footballs to produce each month. The company has decided to use a six-month planning horizon.

The selling price for footballs is not considered relevant to the production decision because Pigskin will satisfy all customer demand exactly when it occursat whatever the selling price is. Therefore. Pigskin wants to determine the production schedule that minimizes the total production and holding costs. Modify the Pigskin model so that there are eight months in the planning horizon. You can make up reasonable values for any extra required data. Dont forget to modify range names. Then modify the model again so that there are only four months in the planning horizon. Do either of these modifications change the optima] production quantity in month 1?
- Sunseel Industries produces two types of raw materials, A and B, with a production cost of $4 and $8 per unit, respectively. The combined production of A and B must be at least 700 units per month. The factory is expected to produce at least 400 units of B and not more than 1200 units of A each month. The processing times for A and B are observed to be 5 hours and 4 hours, respectively. A total of 3000 production hours are available per month. Develop a linear program that Sunseel Industries can use to determine the number of units of each raw material to produce that will meet the demand and minimize the total cost.Green Vehicle Inc. manufactures electric cars and small delivery trucks. It has just opened a new factory where the C1 car and the T1 truck can both be manufactured. To make either vehicle, processing in the assembly shop and in the paint shop are required. It takes 1/40 of a day and 1/60 of a day to paint a truck of type T1 and a car of type C1 in the paint shop, respectively. It takes 1/50 of a day to assemble either type of vehicle in the assembly shop. A T1 truck and a C1 car yield profits of $300 and $220, respectively, per vehicle sold. a) Define the objective function and constraint equations. b) Graph the feasible region. c) What is a maximum-profit daily production plan at the new factory? d) How much profit will such a plan yield, assuming whatever is produced is sold?Vollmer Manufacturing makes three components for sale to refrigeration companies.

No more than 170 units of component 3 can be sold, but up to 1050 units of each of the other components can be sold. In fact, the company already has orders for 625 units of component 1 that must be satisfied. The profit contributions for components 1, 2, and 3 are $8, $6, and $9, respectively. If more time could be made available on the grinder, how much would it be worth? If required, round your answers to two decimal places.$ _____ per minute, since the dual value is _____ on the grinder at the optimal solution.

You have been asked to provide an answer to the following question: How many new personnel should be hired and trained, or laid off, over each of the next six months? The labor requirements and monthly wage rates for trained employees are given in the following table. Trainees can be hired at the beginning of each month. One consideration to take into account is that workers must have one month of classroom instruction before they can work in manufacturing. Therefore, a trainee must be hired a month before the worker is actually needed. Each classroom student uses 60 hours of a trained employee’s time, so there are 60 fewer hours available for manufacturing. Each trained employee can work up to 180 hours a month (total time, instructing plus in manufacturing). Management may lay off at most 15% of the trained employees at the beginning of the month, but…
- Nice-Fit is a (fictional) small business producing outfits for costume parties and specialoccasions. Custom designs can be tailored to a customer’s request.

Tom and Ann keep spreadsheets with information on the material purchased andcostumes made, but they find it difficult to keep track of their products, raw materials, andsales. The raw materials are supplied from a fabric company in India, and the production takesplace in a manufacturing company in China. The clothing is sold at local weekend markets,sold, or rented through costume hire shops, and sold at their physical store. Tom and Annreceive a small percentage of the sales and rentals of their costumes from the hire shops.They have no information on customers other than those who request custom designsdirectly from them.

Plastic used in one unit of each is 1.5, 2.0 and 1.0 pounds, respectively. Rubber for one unit of each toy is 0.5, 0.5, and 1.0 pounds, respectively. Also, each tank uses 0.3 pounds of metal, and the truck uses 0.6 pounds of metal during production. The average weekly availability for plastic is 16,000 pounds, 9,000 pounds of metal, and 5,000 pounds of rubber. It takes two hours of labor to make one tank, two hours for one truck, and one hour for a turtle. The company allows no more than 40 hours a week for production (priority #1).
