Dear weber,
Unfortunately, my question always has no unable to answer. Here, I want to help you to solve my question.
The Answer to my last question regarding the formulation of the problem is:
The Reliance Manufacturing Company produces an aircraft part. The company can produce the part entirely at a flexible work center with multiple computerized machines. The company has four work centers, all of which are different because they were purchased at different times. Each work center has a single operator; however, the company’s operators have different skill levels, resulting in different levels of daily output and product quality. The following tables show the average daily output and an average number of defects per day for each of the company’s five operators who are capable of producing the aircraft part:

The company wants to determine which operator to assign to each machine to maximize daily output and keep the percentage of defect to less than 4%.
- Formulate a 0-1 integer programming model for this problem
- Solve this model by using the computer
SOLUTION:
- Decision Variable
- Define 0 - 1 variables related to the Operator for Output at each Machine as :
Xij = 1 if Operator i is selected to operate Machine j
= 0 if Operator i is not selected to operate Machine j
- Assume 0 – 1 variables related to the Operator for defects at each Machine as :
Yij = 1 if Machine j is selected for operator i
= 0 if Machine j is not selected for operator i
i = Operator 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
j = Machine A, B, C, D
- Objective Function
The objected Function for the given model will be
Z =
Maximize Z = 18 X1A + 20 X1B + 21 X1C + 17 X1D + 19 X2A + 15 X2B + 22 X2C + 18 X2D + 20 X3A + 20 X3B + 17 X3C + 19 X3D + 24 X4A + 21 X4B + 16 X4C + 23 X4D + 22 X5A + 19 X5B + 21 X5C + 21 X5D
- Constraints are:
Subject to Total Defects ≤ 4% x Total Production (Output Machine)
0,3 X1A + 0,9 X1B + 0,6 X1C + 0,4 X1D + 0,8 X2A + 0,5 X2B + 1,1 X2C + 0,7 X2D + 1,1X3A + 1,3 X3B + 0,6 X3C + 0,8 X3D + 1,2 X4A + 0,8 X4B + 0,6 X4C + 0,9 X4D + 1 X5A + 0,9 X5B + 1 X5C + 1 X5D ≤ 0,04 . Z
X1A + X1B + X1C + X1D ≤ 1 (Operator 1 Constraint)
X2A + X2B + X2C + X2D ≤ 1 (Operator 2 Constraint)
X3A + X3B + X3C + X3D ≤ 1 (Operator 3 Constraint)
X4A + X4B + X4C + X4D ≤ 1 (Operator 4 Constraint)
X5A + X5B + X5C + X5D ≤ 1 (Operator 5 Constraint)
Y1A + Y2A + Y3A + Y4A + Y5A = 1 (Machine 1 Constraint)
Y1B + Y2B + Y3B + Y4B + Y5B = 1 (Machine 2 Constraint)
Y1C + Y2C + Y3C + Y4C + Y5C = 1 (Machine 3 Constraint)
Y1D + Y2D + Y3D + Y4D + Y5D = 1 (Machine 4 Constraint)
X are variable 0 or 1.
Y is variable 1.
I hope the answer can help in solving this problem, have a nice day..

- A manufacturing plant produces a product 'A' that requires one unit of 'B' and ½ unit of 'C'. Each unit of 'B' is comprised of one unit of 'D', two units of 'E', and one unit of 'F'. Each unit of 'C' requires ½ unit of 'G' and three units of 'H'. The manufacturing lead times for the components are as follows: 'A' - two weeks, 'B' - one week, 'C' - two weeks, 'D' - two weeks, 'E' - three weeks, 'F' - one week, 'G' - two weeks, 'H' - one week. There are 20 units in stock for each of these components. 100 units of 'A' are needed for delivery in seven weeks: a) Develop the product structure and indexed bill of materials for the product. b) Create a gross and net requirements plan for the manufacturer of the product.arrow_forwardGreen 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 1/75 of a day to paint a truck of type T1 and a car of type C1 in the paint shop, respectively. It takes 1/45 of a day to assemble either type of vehicle in the assembly shop. A T1 truck and a C1 car yield profits of $275 and $225, respectively, per vehicle sold. The aim of the objective function for Green Vehicle Inc. should be to Maximize the objective value. The optimum solution is: Number of trucks to be produced per day = nothing (round your response to two decimal places).arrow_forwardPlease make a comment on the following statement. There are many business applications with linear functions and non-linear functions. Some people think that linear models are particularly of interest due to simplicity and convenience, but some people believe that nonlinear models can simulate business operations better in practice, enabling business professionals to make more accurate decision.arrow_forward
- Mack's guitar fabrication shop produces low cost, highly durable guitars for beginners. Typically, out of the 100 guitars that begin production each month, only 82 percent are considered good enough to sell. The other 18 percent are scrapped due to quality problems that are identified after they have completed the production process. Each guitar sells for $260. Because some of the production process is automated, each guitar only requires 88 labor hours. Each employee works an average of 160 hours per month. Labor is paid at $10 per hour, materials cost is $42 per guitar, and overhead is $4,200. a. The labor productivity ratio for Mack's guitar fabrication shop is $26.65 per hour. b.

Manning operates a centralized call center for customer support calls. Costs associated with use of the center are charged to the division with primary responsibility for the client. There are four geographical divisions: North America (NA), Central and South America (SA), Europe, and Asia-Pacific (APAC). The allocation is based on the length of time of calls made (Minutes). Idle time of the reservation agents and the fixed cost of the equipment are allocated based on the number of calls received (Calls) from clients in each division. Due to recent increased competition in the commercial software business, Manning has decided that it is necessary to better allocate its costs in order to price its services competitively and profitably.

- During the campus Spring Fling, the bumper car amusement attraction has a problem of cars becoming disabled and in need of repair. Repair personnel can be hired at the rate of $20 per hour, but they only work as one team. Thus, if one person is hired, he or she works alone; two or three people work together on the same repair. One repairer can fix cars in an average time of 30 minutes. Two repairers take 20 minutes, and three take 15 minutes. While these cars are down, lost income is $40 per hour. Cars tend to break down at the rate of two per hour. Management is trying to decide how many repair persons to hire, and has asked you for cost data. What is the total hourly cost with one repair person? multiple choice $60 $∞ $140 What is the total hourly cost with two repair persons? Note: Round your answer to the nearest dollar amount.
