A manufacturer of two products (Widgets and Gadgets) makes a profit of $140 for each widget sold and $100 for each gadget sold. However, production of these products generates hazardous waste charges at the rate of 2w (where W is the number of Widgets produced) and 26 (where G is the number of Gadgets produced). The manufacturer has ample supplies of all raw materials and can sell all the Widgets and Gadgets it produces. The firm has sufficient capacity to produce any realistic quantity of both products. What is the optimal quantity of each product to produce? (Round your answers to 1 decimal place.) Widgets and Gadgets

- A company handles an apartment building with 50 units. Experience has shown that if the rent for each of the units is $640 per month, all of the units will be filled, but 1 unit will become vacant for each $20 increase in this monthly rate. If the monthly cost of maintaining the apartment building is $12 per rented unit, what rent should be charged per month to maximize the profit?$Assume the demand for a company’s drug Wozac during the current year is 50,000, and assume demand will grow at 5% a year. If the company builds a plant that can produce x units of Wozac per year,it will cost $16x. Each unit of Wozac is soldfor $3. Each unit of Wozac produced -incurs a variable production cost of $0.20. It costs $0.40 per year to operate a unit of capacity.Determine how large a Wozac plant the company should build to maximize its-expected profit over the next 10 years.The ore of a gold mine in the province contains, on average, 0,5 ounce of gold per ton Method A of processing costs 150Photon and recovers 93% of the gold, while Method B costs only 120Php/ton and recovers 81% of the gold. If gold can be sold at 1,200/ounce, which method is better and by how much?
- A home improvement store sells hydrangea plants during the spring planting season. The hydrangeas cost the store $15 per unit, and sell to customers for $45, but any leftovers at the end of the season are salvaged to a local landscaper for $7/unit. A competitor has advertised that it guarantees 99% of customers find the product they’re looking for in stock. The competitor’s posted price for hydrangeas is $50, and they salvage to the same local landscaper for $7/ hydrangea plant. If the competitor’s advertised service level is correct for hydrangeas and they follow an optimal stocking policy, what does it imply their cost per hydrangea is?A manufacturer produces both widgets and gadgets. Widgets generate a profit of $70 each and gadgets have a profit margin of $45 each. To produce each item, a setup cost is incurred. This setup cost is $400 for widgets and $500 for gadgets. Widgets consume 5 units of raw material A and 6 units of raw material B. Gadgets consume 6 units of raw material A and 2 units of raw material B. Each day, the manufacturer has 500 units of each raw material available. Assume that it is possible to produce fractional quantities of widgets and gadgets.Set up the problem in Excel and find the optimal solution.

It costs $5000 to rent a copier for a year, and it costs $0.03 per copy to operate the copier. Other fixed costs of running the store will amount to $400 per month. You plan to charge an average of $0.10 per copy, and the store will be open 365 days per year. Each copier can make up to 100,000 copies per year. a. For one to five copiers rented and daily demands of 500, 1000, 1500, and 2000 copies per day, find annual profit. That is, find annual profit for each of these combinations of copiers rented and daily demand. b. If you rent three copiers, what daily demand for copies will allow you to break even? c. Graph profit as a function of the number of copiers for a daily demand of 500 copies; for a daily demand of 2000 copies. Interpret your graphs.
- . A commercial orchard grows, picks, and packs apples and pears. A peck (quarter bushel) of apples takes 4 minutes to pick and 5 minutes to pack; a peck of pears takes 5 minutes to pick and 4 minutes to pack. Only one picker and one packer are available. How many pecks each of apples and pears should be picked and packet every hour (60 minutes) if the profit is $3/peck for apples and $2/peck for pears? Solve graphically as a linear program and confirm analytically.Western Chassis produces high-quality polished steel and aluminum sheeting and two lines of industrial chassis for the rack mounting of Internet routers, modems, and other telecommunications equipment. The contribution margin (contribution toward profit) for steel sheeting is $0.40 per pound and for aluminum sheeting is $0.60 per pound. Western earns $12 contribution on the sale of a Standard chassis rack and $15 contribution on a Deluxe chassis rack. During the next production cycle, Western can buy and use up to 25,800 pounds of raw unfinished steel either in sheeting or in chassis. Similarly, 20,400 pounds of aluminum are available. One standard chassis rack requires 16 pounds of steel and 8 pounds of aluminum. A Deluxe chassis rack requires 12 pounds of each metal. The output of metal sheeting is restricted only by the capacity of the polisher. For the next production cycle, the polisher can handle any mix of the two metals up to 4,000 pounds of metal sheeting.
