- Let Yi=1 if Xi positive; 0 otherwise, i=1-6.Which of the following statement regarding the production setup constraint is not true? Group of answer choices A. As long as M2 is larger than 400, it is large enough for the production setup constraint X2-M2Y2<=0 B. We use Xi-MiYi<=0 where Mi is large enough number to ensure when Xi is positive, Yi is 1. C. We can not use Xi-XiYi as the production setup constraint because it is nonlinear. D. The decision variable Yi represents whether or not to use machine i.A glassblower makes glass decanters and glass trays on a weekly basis. Each item requires 1 pound of glass, and the glassblower has 15 pounds of glass available each week. A glass de- canter requires 4 hours of labor, a glass tray requires only 1 hour of labor, and the glassblower works 25 hours a week. The profit from a decanter is $50, and the profit from a tray is $10. The glassblower wants to determine the total number of decanters (x1) and trays (x2) that he needs to produce in order to maximize his profit. Requirements:a) Define decision variables and tabulated datab) Formulate the Integer Linear Programming Model.Formulate and then solve a linear programming model of this problem, to determine how manycontainers of each product to produce tomorrow to maximize profits. The company makes fourjuice products using orange, grapefruit, and pineapple juice.Product Retail Price per QuartOrange juice $1.00Grapefruit juice .90Pineapple juice .80All-in-One 1.10The All-in-One juice has equal parts of orange, grapefruit, and pineapple juice. Each product isproduced in a one-quart size (there are four quarts in a gallon). On hand are 400 gallons of orangejuice, 300 gallons of grapefruit juice, and 200 gallons of pineapple juice. The cost per gallon is$2.00 for orange juice, $1.60 for grapefruit juice, and $1.40 for pineapple juice.In addition, the manager wants grapefruit juice to be used for no more than 30 percent of thenumber of containers produced. She wants the ratio of the number of containers of orange juice tothe number of containers of pineapple juice to be at least 7 to 5.
- Castergourd Home Products makes two types of butcherblock tables: the Beefeater and the Deutschlander. The two tables are made in the same facility and require the same amount of labor and equipment. In addition, we know the following: Each table costs $300 to make, and each requires, on average, 3.2 hours of labor. Each employee works 160 hours per month, and there is no effective limit on the number of employees. The cost of hiring or laying off an employee is $300. The monthly holding cost for a table is $15. For planning purposes, Castergourd will begin and end with 20 employees and 0 tables in inventory.Forecasted sales data is reported on Excel file attached. a. Develop a top-down level production plan for Castergourd for the 10-month planning period. Calculate the total production, hiring, layoff, and inventory costs for your plan. b.

Widgets generate a profit of $50 each and gadgets have a profit margin of $40 each. To produce each item, a setup cost is incurred. This setup cost is $300 for widgets and $400 for gadgets. Widgets consume 5 units of raw material A and 4 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 600 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.A firm knows that the price of the product it is ordering is going to increase permanently by X dollars. It wants to know how much of theproduct it should order before the price increase goes into effect. Here is one approach to this problem. Suppose the firm places one order for Q units before the price increase goes into effect.a. What extra holding cost is incurred by ordering Q units now?b. How much in purchasing costs is saved by ordering Q units now?c. What value of Q maximizes purchasing cost savings less extra holding costs?d. Suppose that the annual demand is 1000 units, the holding cost per unit per year is $7.50, and the price of the item is going to increase by $10. How large an order should the firm place before the price increase goes intoeffect?

If he drives an extra eight miles (round trip) to a gas station on the outskirts of town, Stan can save $0.10 per gallon on the price of gasoline. Suppose gasoline costs $3.90 per gallon and Stan’s car gets 25 mpg for in-town driving. Should Stan make the trip to get less expensive gasoline? Each mile that Stan drives creates one pound of carbon dioxide. Each pound of CO2 has a cost impact of $0.02 on the environment. What other factors (cost and otherwise) should Stan consider in his decision making?
- 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.
