- Problem 2: Comp-Max Computers assembles computers and computer equipment. It is about to start production of threenew types of computers, called model X, Y, and Z, respectively. Each type will require assembly time, inspection time, and storage space. The availability of each of these resources is limited. Specifically, available assembly time is 400 hours, available inspection time is 300 hours, and available storage space is 500 cubic feet (about 14.2 ms). The amount of each resource required for the different products is reported in the table below. Model X earns a profit of $100 per unit, model Yearns a profit of $125 per unit, and model 2 earns a profit of $200 per unit. Due to some prior agreements with customers, Comp-Max must produce at least 12 model X computers. In addition, management requires that the fraction of total production made up of model 2 computers must not exceed 25%.

The firm has a contract with an Indiana distributor to produce a minimum of 300 of each cabinet per week (or 60 cabinets per day). Owner Bob Winkler would like to determine a product mix to maximize his daily revenue. Perform the four steps (i.e., define variables, determine objective function, identify constraints, list the non-negativity statement) and write equations. Use the table in the picture2. As part of a quality improvement initiative, Consolidated Electronics employees complete a three-day training program on teaming and a two-day training program on problem solving. The manager of quality improvement has requested that at least 8 training programs on teaming and at least 10 training programs on problem solving be offered during the next six months. In addition, senior-level management has specified that at least 25 training programs must be offered during this period. Consolidated Electronics uses a consultant to teach the training programs. During the next quarter, the consultant has 84 days of training time available. Each training program on teaming costs $10,000 and each training program on problem solving costs $8000. a. Formulate a linear programming model that can be used to determine the number of training programs on teaming and the number of training programs on problem solving that should be offered in order to minimize total cost. b. Determine the optimal…A car company is planning the introduction of a new electric car. There are two options for production. One is to produce the electric car at the company’s existing plant in Illinois, sharing production with its other products that are currently being produced there. If the sales of the electric car are moderate, this will work out well as there is significant capacity to produce all of the products there. However, if sales of the electric car are strong, this option would necessitate Adding a 3rd shift, which would lead to significantly higher costs. Another option is to build a new plant in Ohio. The new plant would have sufficient capacity to meet whatever level of demand for the new car. However, if sales of the new car not strong, the plant would be underutilized and less efficient. Since this is a new product, sales are hard to predict. The forecast indicates there is a 60% chance of strong sales (annual sales of 100,000), and 40% chance of moderate sales (annual sales of…
- Mr Sng is a retiree in his late sixties. He has $100,000 to invest. He has no regular source of income and no other assets. He is evaluating between 3 different lump-sum financial products shown in Table 3. All products require a minimum investment sum of $100,000. Monetary returns represent the net gain after one year of investing in the product. For example, if Mr Sng chose to invest in Product B, he may lose $5,000 after one year if the GDP growth is negative. He will earn $8,000 if the GDP growth exceeds 2% at the end of the year. If you were in the shoes of Mr Sng, how would you select the appropriate investment product for a time horizon of one year? (i) Use the Optimistic, Conservative and Regrets payoff analysis approaches. State which product(s) Mr Sng should invest in and what monetary return he can expect from each approach (ii) As you have only enough funds for one product, identify the most appropriate investment product.
