Chapter 6.4, Problem 9P
Explanation of Solution
Optimal solution of the diet problem:
- The LINDO output is considered for the Dakota problem:
- max 60DSK+30TBLS+20CHRS
- Subject to constraint
- End
- LP optimum is found at step 2
- Objective function value: 90.000000
| Variable | Value | Reduced cost |
| DSK | 2.000000 | 0.000000 |
| TBLS | 0.000000 | 5.000000 |
| CHRS | 8.000000 | 0.000000 |
| Row | Slack or Surplus | Dual prices |
| 2 | 24.000000 | 0.000000 |
| 3 | 0.000000 | 10.000000 |
| 4 | 0.000000 | 10.000000 |
- Number of iterations= 2
- The ranges in which the basis is unchanged:
| Variable | Current coefficient | OBJ coefficient ranges allowable increase | Allowable decrease |
| DSK | 60.000000 | 20.000000 | 4.000000 |
| TBLS | 30.000000 | 5.000000 | Infinity |
| CHRS | 20.000000 | 2.500000 | 5.000000 |
| Row | Current RHS | Right-hand side ranges allowable increase | Allowable decrease |
| 2 | 48.000000 | Infinity | 24.000000 |
| 3 | 20.000000 | 4.000000 | 4.000000 |
| 4 | 8.000000 | 2.000000 | 1.333333 |
- As brownies and pineapple cheesecake have no zero reduced costs, so case 2 is applied to the states where,
- “At least one of the constraints whose right hand side is being modified is a binding constraint (that is, has zero slack zero excess)”.
- In case 2 for each constraint j the ratio rj is defined as follows:
- If
- If
- If
- Here,
- The 100% rule for objective function states that,
- “If
- Also,
- “If
- “If
- Now, the lumber constraint is increased to 40 board ft and finishing hour constraint is increased to 21 hours and carpentry hour constraint in increased to 8.5 hours

The Optimal Order paper company has received orders for four different
groups of publications. The following orders have been placed.
8 rolls of 2 ft. paper at $2.50 per roll
6 rolls of 2.5 ft. paper at $3.10 per roll
5 rolls of 4 ft. paper at $5.25 per roll
4 rolls of 3 ft. paper at $4.40 per roll
Due to heavy demand on the printing process, the paper company only has 13 ft. of
paper from which to fill these orders. If partial orders (1 roll,2 rolls,3 rolls, etc.) can
be filled, which orders and how many of each should be filled to maximize total
profit? Use Dynamic Programming to answer the question and show stages 4 and 3

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.
