PLEASE USE SIMPLEX METHOD. Thank you! Suppose a company manufactures different electronic components for computers. Component A requires 2 hours of fabrication and an hour of assembly. Component B requires 3 hours of fabrication and an hour of assembly, and component C requires 2 hours of fabrication and 2 hours of assembly. The company has upto 1,000 labor-hours for fabrication, 800 labor-hours of assembly time each work. If the profit on each component A, B, and C is $7, $8, and $10 respectively, how many of each should be produced to maximize profit?
MaximizationProblems and Minimization problems ***When using the simplex method, what is the difference between maximizing and minimizing?
LINGO SOFTWARE Consider a production-mix problem where we are concerned with what mix of four products we should produce during the upcoming week. For each product, each unit produced requires a known amount of production time on each of the three machines. Each machine has a certain number of hours of production time available per week. Each product provides a certain profit per unit produced. Figure 3S1.2 shows three types of data: machine-related data, product-related data, and data related to combinations of a machine and product. The objective is to determine how much to produce for each product so that total profit is maximized while not exceeding the limited production capacity of each machine. Requirement: Solve this problem in LINGO software.
Struggling with answering this question A manufacturer produces three types of humidifiers. The retail price of Humidifier Regular (HR) is $60 with variable costs of $20. Humidifier Advanced (HA) sells for $200 for its advanced features. This model’s variable costs are $80. Humidifier Simple (HS) is a simplified version and only sells for $25 with variable costs of $15. The manufacturer has machines and facilities worth $320,000 annually. The sales data show that 1000 units of HR, 2000 units of HA, and 10,000 units of HS was sold last year. Calculate the break-even point of the firm. The firm has some idle capacity at these volumes and chooses to cut the selling price of HR from $60 to $45, believing that its sales volume will rise from 1000 units to 2500 units. What is the revised break-even point?

Dataware is trying to determine whether to give a $10 rebate, cut the price $6, or have no price change on a software product. Currently, 40,000 units of the product are sold each week for $45 apiece. The variable cost of the product is $5. The most likely case appears to be that a $10 rebate will increase sales 30%, and half of all people will claim the rebate. For the price cut, the most likely case is that sales will increase 20%.a. Given all other assumptions, what increase in sales from the rebate would make the rebate and price cut equally desirable?b. Dataware does not really know the increase in sales that will result from a rebate or price cut. However, the company is sure that the rebate will increase sales by between 15% and 40% and that the price cut will increase sales by between 10% and 30%. Perform a sensitivity analysis (two-way data table) that could be used to help determine Dataware’s best decision.
Is my solution correct and did I fully answer the questions? (see attachment for my solution) Question: There are three factories on Momiss River. Each emits two types of pollutants, labeled P1 and P2, into the river. If the waste from each factory is processed, the pollution in the river can be reduced. It costs $1,500 to process a ton of factory 1 waste, and each ton processed reduces the amount of P1 by 0.10 ton and the amount of P2 by 0.45 ton. It costs $2,500 to process a ton of factory 2 waste, and each ton processed reduces the amount of P1 by 0.20 ton and the amount of P2 by 0.25 ton. It costs $3,000 to process a ton of factory 3 waste, and each ton processed reduces the amount of P1 by 0.40 ton and the amount of P2 by 0.50 ton. The state wants to reduce the amount of P1 in the river by at least 125 tons and the amount of P2 by at least 175 tons. a. Use Solver to determine how to minimize the cost of reducing pollution by the desired amounts. Are the LP assumptions…
Chemco produces three products: 1, 2, and 3. Eachpound of raw material costs $25. It undergoes processingand yields 3 oz of product 1 and 1 oz of product 2. It costs$1 and takes 2 hours of labor to process each pound of rawmaterial. Each ounce of product 1 can be used in one ofthree ways.It can be sold for $10/oz.It can be processed into 1 oz of product 2. This requires 2 hours of labor and costs $1.It can be processed into 1 oz of product 3. This requires 3 hours of labor and costs $2.Each ounce of product 2 can be used in one of two ways.It can be sold for $20/oz.It can be processed into 1 oz of product 3. This requires 1 hour of labor and costs $6.Product 3 is sold for $30/oz. The maximum number ofounces of each product that can be sold is given in Table 23.A maximum of 25,000 hours of labor are available.Determine how Chemco can maximize profit.

Please no written by hand and no emage Kindly create a spreadsheet from the problem description. Find the optimal solution using Excel Solver (Please show working with steps on a spreadsheet) : The Heinrich Company manufactures two types of plastic hangerracks (Foldaways and Straightaways) especially suited for mountingnear clothes dryers. Because permanent press clothing must be hungon hangers immediately after removal from the dryer, these items havebeen especially popular. However, there is some concern that thePreppie movement (popularized by its own handbook) will extinguishpolyester clothing; Heinrich is terribly interested in doing the best withthe resources it has while its products are still in demand. The firsttype of hanger rack, the Foldaway, requires 10 ounces of plasticmaterial and 0.3 hours of labor. Plastic costs Heinrich 10 cents anounce; labor costs Heinrich $20 per hour. The second type of hangerrack, the Straightaway, requires 15 ounces of plastic and 0.175…
