At Lummins Engine Corporation, production employeeswork 10 hours per day, four days per week. Each day ofthe week, at least the following number of employees mustbe working: Monday through Friday, seven employees; Saturday and Sunday, three employees. Lummins has set the following goals, listed in order of priority:■ Goal 1: Meet employee requirements with11 workers.■ Goal 2: The average number of weekend days offper employee should be at least 1.5 days.■ Goal 3: The average number of consecutive daysoff an employee gets during the week should notexceed 2.8 days.Use goal programming to determine how to schedule Lummins employees.
The Touche Young accounting firm must complete three jobs during the next month. Job 1 will require 500 hours of work, job 2 will require 300 hours of work, and job 3 will require 100 hours of work. Currently, the firm consists of 5 partners, 5 senior employees, and 5 junior employees, each of whom can work up to 40 hours per month. The dollar amount (per hour) that the company can bill depends on the type of accountant who is assigned to each job, as shown in the table below. (The X indicates that a junior employee does not have enough experience to work on job 1.) All jobs must be completed. Touche Young has also set the following goals, listed in order of priority:
Goal 1: Monthly billings should exceed $68,000.
Goal 2: At most, 1 partner should be hired.
Goal 3: At most, 3 senior employees should be hired.
Goal 4: At most, 5 junior employees should be hired.
