The Pee Tool Shop has four heavy presses it uses to stamp out prefabricated metal covers and housings
for electronic consumer products. All four presses operate differently and are of different sizes.
Currently the firm has a contract to produce three products. The contract calls for 400 units of product
1; 570 units of product 2; and 320 units of product 3. The time (in minutes) required for each product
to be produced on each machine is as follows: SOLVE THE MODEL BY USING MS EXCEL
Employees of KB and SONS Consultants Limited are paid at an hourly basics of 25GHS per an hour for regular hours and 1.5 times per hour for overtime hours in a week. Any hour worked over 40 hours per week is overtime. The following national tax sliding scale is then applied to determine the amount of tax to be paid by an employee.

Wilson Creek Farm has 200 acres of land available for planting. The owner is considering planting three
crops: corn, soybeans, and wheat. The production yield, water requirements, and labor requirements for
a salable crop are given here. The owner expects to have only 35,000 gallons of water available per week
to use for the crops, and during the growing season he will only have 8000 person-hours of labor available.
The expected profit per bushel of each crop is $1.00 for corn, $1.60 for soybeans, and $3.00 for wheat.
The owner can use any mix of crops (i.e., he can plant the same crop on all 200 acres or he can plant all
three crops in different proportions).
d. Solve the problem using Excel Solver Tool. Add supporting pictures from the software for each step.
Discuss your output in line with the given reports from Excel.
