1. Suzie’s Sweatshirts is a home-based company that makes upscale, hand-painted sweatshirts for children.
Autumn: 125
Winter: 350
Spring: 75
Each Shirt is sold for $15. The holding cost per shirt is 6% of the selling price per quarter. The shirts are painted by part-time workers who earn $4.50 per hour during the autumn. Because of the high demand for part-time help during the winter holiday season, labor rates are higher in the winter, and Suzie must pay the workers $6.00 per hour. In the spring, labor is more difficult to keep, and Suzie finds that she must pay $5.50 per hour to get qualified help. Each shirt takes 1.5 hours to complete. Formulate the problem to a LP model to help Suzie plan production over the three quarters to minimize the combined production and inventory holding cost. Suppose there is no inventory at the beginning of the autumn.

Forrest says, "That's life." On the other hand, Dan believes that some demand patterns exist that could be useful for planning the purchase of sugar, chocolate, and shrimp. Forrest insists on placing a surprise chocolate-covered shrimp in some boxes so that "You never know what you'll get." Quarterly demand (in boxes of chocolates) for the last three years is shown in the table below: b. If the expected sales for chocolates are 14,400 cases for year 4, use the multiplicative seasonal method to prepare a forecast for each quarter of the year. (Round all intermediate calculations to two decimal places.) The first quarter forecast is what? boxes of chocolates. (Enter your response rounded to the nearest whole number.)Famous Albert prides himself on being the Cookie King of the West. Small, freshly baked cookies are the specialty of his shop. Famous Albert has asked for help to determine the number of cookies he should make each day. From an analysis of past demand, he estimates demand for cookies as DEMAND PROBABILITY OF DEMAND 1,800 dozen 0.05 2,000 0.10 2,200 0.20 2,400 0.30 2,600 0.20 2,800 0.10 3,000 0.05 Each dozen sells for $0.69 and costs $0.49, which includes handling and transportation. Cookies that are not sold at the end of the day are reduced to $0.29 and sold the following day as day-old merchandise. Compute the expected profit or loss for each cookie making decision quantity. (Round your answers to the nearest whole number. Enter expected losses with a negative sign) Based on your answers to part a., what is the optimal number of cookies to make? By using marginal analysis, what is the optimal number of cookies to make?
