Creative sports design (CSD) manufactures a standard size racket and an over sized racket. The firm's rackets are extremely light due to the use of a magnesium- graphite alloy that was invented by the firm's founder. Each standard size racket uses 0.125 kilograms of the alloy and each oversize racket uses 0.4 kilograms; over the next two week production period only 80 kilograms of the alloy are available. Each standard size racket uses 10 min. of manufacturing timeand each oversize racket uses 12 min. The profit contributions are $10 for each standard size racket and $15 for each oversized racket, and 40 hours of manufacturing time are available each week. Managment specified that at least 20% of the total production must3 be the standard size racket. How many rackets of each type should CSD manufacture over the next 2 weeks to maximize the total profit contributions? Assume that because of the unique nature of their products, CSD can sell as many rackets as they can produce?

Hansen Controls has been awarded a contract for a large number of control panels. To meet this demand, it will use its existing plants in Houston and Tulsa, and consider new plants in Portland, St. Louis and Lexington. Finished control panels are to be shipped to Denver, Kansas City and Seattle. Pertinent information is given in the table. Denver 1 1- 2- 3- Sources 4- 5- Houston Tulsa Portland Construction St. Louis Cost Kansas City 2 ---- 1 Shipping Cost to Destination: Capacity Seattle 3 6 6 500,000 450,000 Lexington 400,000 Demand 14,000 13,000 18,000 We develop a transportation model as an LP that includes provisions for the fixed costs (construction costs in this case) for the three new plants. The solution of this model would reveal which plants to build and the optimal shipping schedule. Let xij = the number of panels shipped from source i to destination j y₁ = 1 if plant i is built, = 0 otherwise (i = 3, 4, 5) The constraint x21 + x22+x23 <= 13,000*y3 represents which of the…

Sturgill Manufacturing Inc. needs to predict the numbers of machines and employees required to produce its planned production for the coming year. The plant runs three shifts continuously during the workweek, for a total of 120 hours of capacity per week. The shop efficiency (the percent of total time available for production), which accounts for setups, changeovers, and maintenance, averages 70% with a standard deviation of 5%, which reduces the weekly capacity. Six key parts are produced, and the plant has three different types of machines to produce each part. The machines are not interchangeable as they each have a specific function. The time to produce each part on each machine varies. The mean time and standard deviation (in hours) to produce each part on each machine are shown below: Mean Time Part Type Machine A Machine B Machine C 1 3.5 2.6     8.9 2 3.4 2.5  8 3 1.8 3.5 12.6 4 2.4 5.8 12.5 5 4.2 4.3 28  6…

Taylor Smith owns a small clothing company, Cuteness for You, that offers an online subscription and personal shopping service targeted at busy families with children aged newborn to five years old. Currently, Taylor has one level of subscription service, the standard service. For $100 a month, the standard service provides its customers a monthly delivery of 10 clothing items carefully chosen to match the child's size, gender, and emerging style. The online clothing subscription market is fairly new but is growing rapidly and thus Taylor is considering extending the product line to increase its market share and profits.   Taylor is debating whether to add a premium subscription service featuring profitable high-markup items for $125 per month, a basic subscription service that contains lower-markup popular items priced at $75 per month, or possibly both. Taylor knows that the new product lines provide an opportunity to attract more customers and possibly increase revenues and profit,…
