The Exorbitant Course Fees The $75 per credit hour course fee tacked on to all the MBA classes has generated a windfall of $56,250 in its first semester. "Now we just need to make sure we spend it all," the Assistant Dean cackled. She charged the Graduate Curriculum Committee with generating a shopping list before their next meeting. Four months later, the chairman of the committee distributed the following. As the professor for the quantitative modeling course, he tended to think in terms of decision variables, so he added the left-most column for ease of use. Decision Variable Item Cost Note A iPads for everybody $750/unit Must get a cover if these are purchased B iPad covers with MBA logo $25/unit Not needed unless we buy iPads C Speaker series $15,000 Can't afford both this and the iPads D Subscriptions to the Wall Street Journal $10/unit Don't need if we have the electronic version E Subscriptions to the electronic version of the Wall Street Journal $5/unit Worthless without the iPads 106) What is a full set of constraints for this problem if there are 30 MBA students enrolled this semester?

Saba conducts regular tours of his favorite city in the world, Paris. Each semester he selects among the finest students in the university and escorts them to the City of Lights. In addition to a world-class education on conducting business in Europe, he arranges a number of cultural outings for them to help them immerse themselves in all that France has to offer. He collects an extra $100 from each student for this purpose and limits his tour group to ten lucky individuals. Some of the events (and their prices) he proposes to the students include: Eiffel Tower visit, $40 per student, E Paris Sewer spelunking, $20 per student, S Half day passes to the Louvre, $60 per student, L Bon Beret tour, $50 per student, B So much to do and so little time! 65) Which constraint is most appropriate if the students can choose only three of these activities?

The Deadbeats After months of broken promises, partial payments, and general stupidity, the landlord had no choice but to evict the long-term tenants that had become little more than squatters in his first rental property. As he surveyed the damage and pondered a mix of repairs and upgrades, he scoured the latest statistics on what different upgrades might be worth in terms of increased rent. Beautifully refinished wood floors could increase the monthly rent about $100 and an upgrade to the kitchen would fetch $80 per month. The garage door needed replacement, but even though it would receive daily use, it was almost an order qualifier, and wouldn't net more than $20 per month. The house had always suffered from lack of a back door - you had to access the backyard through the garage, so taking out a window and replacing it with a safety door would cost $250 and add only $15 to the monthly rent. The garage door would cost $350, the kitchen update would cost $1000 if he went with granite, and the floor refinish job would cost $400 to rent the buffer and buy the chemicals. It wouldn't be easy doing these upgrades; the garage door would take a half week, the back door one week, the floors two weeks and the tile three weeks. There was another way around these jobs though; instead of doing them himself, the landlord could always hire a professional in each field that could finish the job in half the time but would charge a pretty penny for that speed. Refinishing floors would cost $2700, upgrading the kitchen would cost $2500, replacing the back window with a door would cost $600, and installing a garage door opener would cost $350. 40) Obviously if the model wants to upgrade the kitchen, it should be done by either the landlord or a subcontractor. As he creates the IP model, the landlord wants to leave the choice of whether to actually upgrade the kitchen up to the optimization algorithm. How should this constraint be written if he uses the following scheme for decision variables? x1 = contractor works on wood floors x2 = landlord works on wood floors x3 = contractor works on kitchen tile x4 = contractor works on kitchen tile x5 = contractor works on back door x6 = contractor works on back door x7 = contractor works on garage door x8 = contractor works on garage door A) x3 + x4 ≤ 1 B) x3 + x4 = 1 C) x3 - x4 ≤ 1 D) x3 - x4 = 1

113) The assistant manager had taken a management science class a few years before and while she knew enough to formulate the problem and implement it in Excel, the only sensitivity training she had ever received had to do with being more empathetic to the plight of her minimum wage workforce. Help her interpret the sensitivity report for the cheese and meat constraints as it appears below. (look at the chart)

All 400 ounces of the cheese and 150 ounces of the meat are used in the optimal product mix. If the assistant manager could buy an ounce of cheese for 25 cents or less, they should do that up to an additional 16.6 ounces of cheese. If they were to waste cheese, each ounce lost would effectively lose them 25 cents up to losing 233 ounces. Additional meat should be purchased up to a price of 12.5 cents per ounce and up to an additional 110 ounces. Wasting an ounce of meat costs 12.5 cents per ounce up to a loss of 10 ounces.

41) Suppose the landlord really wants the back door to be installed. For too long he has had to cut through the garage and he figures when he retires, this house will be a perfect downsize home for him to move into. How should the constraint for the back door be written if he uses the following scheme for decision variables? x1 = contractor works on wood floors x2 = landlord works on wood floors x3 = contractor works on kitchen tile x4 = contractor works on kitchen tile x5 = contractor works on back door x6 = contractor works on back door x7 = contractor works on garage door x8 = contractor works on garage door A) x5 + x6 ≤ 1 B) x5 + x6 = 1 C) x5 - x6 ≤ 1 D) x5 - x6 = 1

The Cruise Their cruise would port out of New Orleans and promised seven days with a panoply of excursions in Jamaica, Cozumel, and Grand Cayman. A list of excursions at each site and key features of each appear in the table. The excursions were all day affairs, so it was possible to engage in only one per port. The cruise ship sailed at night and docked at each of these three ports at the crack of dawn. By dinner time, the ship was on its way to the next port and next set of excursions. The couple was energetic and active for a pair of 52-year-olds, and while enjoying an upper middle class lifestyle, they didn't want to spend money on excursions that might be better spent on tacky souvenirs. The couple therefore budgeted $250 for the excursions - the prices shown are per couple, so for example, the $60 will pay for both of them to fill up on jerk chicken and mannish water. For each of the duplicate excursions (e.g., snorkeling is offered in all three ports), the couple researched the quality of the activity and ranked the excursion among the available alternatives, with higher numbers indicating better quality. Thus, snorkeling in Jamaica is better than in Cozumel, and snorkeling in Cozumel is better than in Grand Cayman. For the unique experiences, i.e., the turtle farm, the default rating was the a 3. Site Rating Activity Cost Jamaica 3 snorkeling $100 Jamaica 1 party island $95 Jamaica 2 horseback ride $120 Jamaica 3 local cuisine $60 Cozumel 2 snorkeling $110 Cozumel 3 party island $55 Cozumel 1 horseback ride $70 Cozumel 2 local cuisine $90 Cozumel 3 tequila tasting $130 Grand Cayman 1 snorkeling $90 Grand Cayman 2 party island $60 Grand Cayman 3 horseback ride $110 Grand Cayman 1 local cuisine $130 Grand Cayman 3 turtle farm $95 (this is a chart in the document) (Note - data used in this test question should not be construed as vacation advice.) 46) What is an appropriate objective function for this vacation?

108) The poultry farmer discovers, much to his dismay, that the product mix that satisfies all of his constraints isn't really a mix of birds-it's a flock consisting of nothing but 32 Leghorns. (His constraints were a plumage score greater than 75, fertilizer production greater than 80 ounces per week, temperament less than 100 decibels, and an appetite less than 160 ounces of layer pellets per week.) Not only is his flock going to be a very one-note mix in terms of color, he is afraid that the gleaming white feathers and deafening noise will attract predators, or worse yet, his neighbors. He immediately embarks on a breeding program to develop a Super-Cochin that can lay 4.5 eggs per week with all other performance measures the same. His optimal solution is now 27.5 Leghorns and 5.625 Super-Cochins. Assuming that he is willing to settle for a flock that has 27 Leghorns and 5 Super Cochins, what is the weekly output of eggs and performance with respect to the constraints?

The Deadbeats After months of broken promises, partial payments, and general stupidity, the landlord had no choice but to evict the long-term tenants that had become little more than squatters in his first rental property. As he surveyed the damage and pondered a mix of repairs and upgrades, he scoured the latest statistics on what different upgrades might be worth in terms of increased rent. Beautifully refinished wood floors could increase the monthly rent about $100 and an upgrade to the kitchen would fetch $80 per month. The garage door needed replacement, but even though it would receive daily use, it was almost an order qualifier, and wouldn't net more than $20 per month. The house had always suffered from lack of a back door - you had to access the backyard through the garage, so taking out a window and replacing it with a safety door would cost $250 and add only $15 to the monthly rent. The garage door would cost $350, the kitchen update would cost $1000 if he went with granite, and the floor refinish job would cost $400 to rent the buffer and buy the chemicals. It wouldn't be easy doing these upgrades; the garage door would take a half week, the back door one week, the floors two weeks and the tile three weeks. There was another way around these jobs though; instead of doing them himself, the landlord could always hire a professional in each field that could finish the job in half the time but would charge a pretty penny for that speed. Refinishing floors would cost $2700, upgrading the kitchen would cost $2500, replacing the back window with a door would cost $600, and installing a garage door opener would cost $350. 91) Formulate an appropriate objective function for this scenario.

92) Formulate an appropriate model for this scenario.

If the variables are assigned as in the table: x1 = contractor works on wood floors x2 = landlord works on wood floors x3 = contractor works on kitchen tile x4 = contractor works on kitchen tile x5 = contractor works on back door x6 = contractor works on back door x7 = contractor works on garage door x8 = contractor works on garage door then an appropriate objective function will be: Max Z = 100x1 + 100x2 + 80x3 + 80x4 + 15x5 + 15x6 + 20x7 + 20x8 Subject to: x1 + x2 ≤ 1 x3 + x4 ≤ 1 x5 + x6 ≤ 1 x7 + x8 ≤ 1 2700x1 + 400x2 + 2500x3 + 1000x4 + 600x5 + 250x6 + 350x7 + 400x8 ≤ 3000 1x1 + 2x2 + 1.5x3 + 3x4 + 0.5x5 + 1x6 + 0.25x7 + 0.5x8 ≤ 4 x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, x6, x7, x8 are 0,1

94) I know it's hard to believe that his job as a management scientist doesn't comfortably keep him in Ferraris and caviar, but the insurance premiums on his ride are outrageous, and frankly it doesn't get good gas mileage in the city. Hence, the management scientist/landlord runs his model and receives this output. Provide an interpretation of exactly what will happen in the coming weeks. (look at document for a better chart than below) Cell Name Original Value Final Value Integer $G$4 wood floors contractor 1 0 Binary $H$4 wood floors landlord 1 1 Binary $G$5 kitchen tile contractor 1 1 Binary $H$5 kitchen tile landlord 1 0 Binary $G$6 back door contractor 1 0 Binary $H$6 back door landlord 1 0 Binary $G$7 garage door opener contractor 1 0 Binary $H$7 garage door opener landlord 1 0 Binary

It appears that the landlord/management scientist will tackle the wood floors himself and have a contractor install kitchen tile. This will take 3.5 weeks, leaving one half week free, and will cost $2900 out of the maximum $3,000 budget, leaving $100 - enough for beer and pizza, or at least pizza. It is somewhat ambiguous whether the landlord has four weeks to work with and the contractors have four weeks or whether the entire model's time constraint should have only four weeks - if we knew whether there were wood floors in the kitchen and two work groups would get in each other's way, then we could set up constraints to capture this situation.

109) A credit union wants to make investments in the following: (look at the chart) The firm will have $2,500,000 available for investment during the coming year. The following restrictions apply: Risk-free securities may not exceed 30% of the total funds, but must comprise at least 5% of the total. Signature loans may not exceed 12% of the funds invested in all loans (vehicle, consumer, other secured loans, and signature loans). Consumer loans plus other secured loans may not exceed the vehicle loans. Other secured loans plus signature loans may not exceed the funds invested in risk-free securities. How should the $2,500,000 be allocated to each alternative to maximize annual return? What is the annual return?

95) The management scientist was planning to leave his actions up to the wisdom of his model, but before he could press "Solve" on his Excel spreadsheet, his wife weighed in on the project. This was only reasonable, as it was her house before they tied the knot. It has been her dream to move back into this cottage once the management scientist goes to his great reward. She insists that the back door and garage door components of this project happen. If the variables have been chosen as in the table, construct an objective function and constraints that meet the management scientist's bride's requests. x1 = contractor works on wood floors x2 = landlord works on wood floors x3 = contractor works on kitchen tile x4 = contractor works on kitchen tile x5 = contractor works on back door x6 = contractor works on back door x7 = contractor works on garage door x8 = contractor works on garage door

93) Formulate an appropriate model for this scenario if the variables are assigned as in the table: x1 = contractor works on wood floors x2 = landlord works on wood floors x3 = contractor works on kitchen tile x4 = contractor works on kitchen tile x5 = contractor works on back door x6 = contractor works on back door x7 = contractor works on garage door x8 = contractor works on garage door

116) You have been asked to select at least 3 out of 7 possible sites for oil exploration. Designate each site as S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6, and S7. The restrictions are: Restriction 1. Evaluating sites S1 and S3 will prevent you from exploring site S7. Restriction 2. Evaluating sites S2 or S4 will prevent you from assessing site S5. Restriction 3. Of all the sites, at least 3 should be assessed. Assuming that Si is a binary variable, write the constraint for the third restriction.

S2 + S5 ≤ 1, S4 + S5 ≤ 1

104) The tour group has three days remaining in Paris and the opportunity to do three cultural events. It is important to soak up as much culture as possible, so Saba decides to model this as a 0-1 integer program mandating that the group does three events. A couple of students object, not to the integer program, but to the set of cultural events that they have to choose from. They would rather have the option to do up to three events but perhaps only one or two and spend the rest of their time doing some "retail benchmarking." What was Saba's original constraint and how does that constraint change to cater to the whims of the students?

Saba's original constraint was E + L + S + B = 3, which directed the group to three tours. The new constraint is E + L + S + B ≤ 3, which allows for the possibility of no tours up to a maximum of three tours.

8) The production planner for Airbus showed his boss the latest product mix suggestion from their slick new linear programming model: 12.5 model 320s and 17.4 model 340s. The boss looked over his glasses at the production planner and reminded him that they had several unsold half airplanes from last year's production rusting in the parking lot. No one, it seems, is interested in half of an airplane. The production planner whipped out his red pen and crossed out the .5 and .4, turning the new plan into 12 model 320s and 17 model 340s. This production plan is definitely feasible.

TRUE

94) The Excel LP model for this scenario shows the following sensitivity report for the constraints. Comment on the salient features. (look at the chart)

The budget has a shadow price of 12, meaning that for every $1 increase in budget, an additional 12 customers could be reached. Facebook's shadow price of 20 can be interpreted as an increase in 20 customers receiving the message for each additional Facebook posting up to 233 postings. Newspaper and Twitter are not in the model and thus have no opportunity cost in this formulation. The budget shadow price is robust, but that of Facebook is comparatively narrow.

100) The vacationing management scientist sat down at his computer keyboard, cracked his knuckles and decided on the scheme of location (J, C, or G) and excursion (S, P, H, L, Te or Tu), for his decision variables. He wrote constraints that read: JS + JP + JH + JL + CS + CP + CH + CL + CTe + GS + GP + GH + GL + GTu ≤ 3 JS + JP + JH + JL ≤ 1 CS + CP + CH + CL + CTe ≤ 1 GS + GP + GH + GL + GTu ≤ 1 What do these constraints accomplish in the model and which ones are necessary?

The first constraint limits the total number of excursions to 3. JS + JP + JH + JL + CS + CP + CH + CL + CTe + GS + GP + GH + GL + GTu ≤ 3 The second through the fourth constraints limit the excursions at each one of the ports to 1. JS + JP + JH + JL ≤ 1 CS + CP + CH + CL + CTe ≤ 1 GS + GP + GH + GL + GTu ≤ 1 The first constraint doesn't help the model and can be eliminated. If it were used in place of constraints 2 through 4, the model might suggest taking all three excursions at one port of call, which would be impossible.

97) The management scientist entered a trance-like state as he formulated his model. This state was interrupted by an integer-hating colleague, who insisted that the model should be run as a linear program rather than integer program. The management scientist sighed, relaxed the integer constraint, and ran the model, obtaining the following answer report. Provide a full interpretation and plan for action. Variable Cells Cell Name Original Value Final Value Integer $G$4 wood floors Contractor? 0 0 Contin $H$4 wood floors Landlord? 0 1 Contin $G$5 kitchen tile Contractor? 0 0.833 Contin $H$5 kitchen tile Landlord? 0 0.167 Contin $G$6 back door Contractor? 0 0.000 Contin $H$6 back door Landlord? 0 0 Contin $G$7 garage door opener Contractor? 0 1 Contin $H$7 garage door opener Landlord? 0 0 Contin Constraints Cell Name Cell Value Formula Status Slack $B$12 Total Time Weeks Contractor 4 $B$12<=$B$13 Binding 0 $E$10 Total Cost Contractor Price $3,000 $E$10<=$E$11 Binding 0 $I$4 wood floors Included? 1 $I$4<=$J$4 Binding 0 $I$5 kitchen tile Included? 1 $I$5<=$J$5 Binding 0 $I$6 back door Included? 2.78E-16 $I$6<=$J$6 Not Binding 1 $I$7 garage door opener Included? 1 $I$7<=$J$7 Binding 0

The landlord uses the entire budget, takes the entire four weeks and installs (or has the contractor install) the floors, garage door, and the kitchen tile, leaving only the back door off the improvement list. The kitchen tile project is split between the landlord, who does one-sixth of the work, and the contractor, who completes the remaining five-sixths. Although the model meets the constraints, this is not a practical solution in the real world. The management scientist should realize that moving to an integer solution within the LP feasible region will result in a feasible solution, albeit one with no guarantee of optimality. If the integer solution of wood floors and the garage door is chosen, there would be money and time both left over in the project budget, but the management scientist should reintroduce the integer constraint to confirm the best choice of action.

96) The management scientist was planning to leave his actions up to the wisdom of his model, but before he could press "Solve" on his Excel spreadsheet, his wife weighed in on the project. This was only reasonable, as it was her house before they tied the knot. It has been her dream to move back into this cottage once the management scientist goes to his great reward. She insists that the back door and garage door components of this project happen. After making these changes, the management scientist ran the model and obtained the following answer report. Provide a full interpretation. (Look at document for better charts) Variable Cells Cell Name Original Value Final Value Integer $G$4 wood floors Contractor? 0 0 Binary $H$4 wood floors Landlord? 1 1 Binary $G$5 kitchen tile Contractor? 1 0 Binary $H$5 kitchen tile Landlord? 0 0 Binary $G$6 back door Contractor? 0 1 Binary $H$6 back door Landlord? 0 0 Binary $G$7 garage door opener Contractor? 0 1 Binary $H$7 garage door opener Landlord? 0 0 Binary Constraints Cell Name Cell Value Formula Status Slack $B$12 Total Time Weeks 2.75 $B$12<=$B$13 Not Binding 1.25 $E$10 Total Cost $1,350 $E$10<=$E$11 Not Binding 1650 $I$4 wood floors Included 1 $I$4<=$J$4 Binding 0 $I$5 kitchen tile Included 0 $I$5<=$J$5 Not Binding 1 $I$6 back door Included 1 $I$6=$J$6 Binding 0 $I$7 gar door open Included 1 $I$7=$J$7 Binding 0 $G$4:$H$7= Binary

The landlord will be refinishing the wood floors and the contractor(s) will be tackling the garage door opener and back door installations. those projects will cost a total of $1350, leaving $1650 left in the budget. These projects will take 2.75 weeks out of the four weeks available. The landlord should be able to increase the monthly rent by $135 once these upgrades have been completed. The only upgrade not completed will be the kitchen tile.

93) The Excel LP model for this scenario shows the following sensitivity report for the variable cells. Comment on the salient features. (look at the chart)

The model recommends four Facebook postings and almost 14 radio spots which will reach 42,080 potential tourists. Forcing the two unchosen media would result in a drop of 1000 customers if newspaper entered the marketing mix and a drop of 800 customers if Twitter was required. The Facebook allowable decrease is of some concern among all shown as the decrease of 2 units is small by comparison to the other ranges shown for the newspaper, radio and Twitter channels.

112) The assistant manager had taken a management science class a few years before and while she knew enough to formulate the problem and implement it in Excel, the only sensitivity training she had ever received had to do with being more empathetic to the plight of her minimum wage workforce. Help her interpret the sensitivity report for the Nacholupa product as it appears below. (look at the chart)

The optimal product mix calls for 55 Nacholupas to be prepared at a sale price of $2.75. This amount of Nacholupas would be optimal if the price rose by 25 cents up to $3 or dropped by 11.4 cents down to $2.636.

97) Suppose demand in sales center C drops to 400 units. How does the problem formulation change?

The supply constraints become "less than or equal to" constraints and the total amount shipped to location C must now equal 400. All of the demand constraints are "equal to" constraints to force the model to ship product. MIN Z = 5x1A + 6x1B + 7x1C + 6x2A + 9x2B + 8x2C + 7x3A + 4x3B + 6x3C s.t. x1A + x1B +x1C ≤ 320 x2A + x2B +x2C ≤ 420 x3A + x3B +x3C ≤ 520 x1A + x2A +x3A = 400 x1B + x2B +x3B = 400 x1C + x2C +x3C = 400

82) Suppose demand in sales center C drops to 400 units. How does the problem formulation change and what is the optimal answer?

99) What is an appropriate objective function and constraints for this vacation?

Using the scheme of location (J, C, or G) and excursion (S, P, H, L, Te or Tu), the model should be expressed as: Max Z = 3JS + 1JP + 2JH + 3JL + 2CS + 3CP + 1CH + 2CL + 3CTe + 1GS + 2GP + 3GH + 1GL + 3GTu subject to: 100JS + 95JP + 120JH + 60JL + 110CS + 55CP + 70CH + 90CL + 130CTe + 90GS + 60GP + 110GH + 130GL + 95GTu <= 250 JS + JP + JH + JL ≤ 1 CS + CP + CH + CL + CTe ≤ 1 GS + GP + GH + GL + GTu ≤ 1 JS + CS + GS ≤ 1 JP + CP + GP <= 1 JH + CH + GH <= 1 JL + CL + GL <= 1 JS, JP, JH, JL, CS, CP, CH, CL, CTe, GS, GP, GH, GL, GTu are 0,1

The Cruise Their cruise would port out of New Orleans and promised seven days with a panoply of excursions in Jamaica, Cozumel, and Grand Cayman. A list of excursions at each site and key features of each appear in the table. The excursions were all day affairs, so it was possible to engage in only one per port. The cruise ship sailed at night and docked at each of these three ports at the crack of dawn. By dinner time, the ship was on its way to the next port and next set of excursions. The couple was energetic and active for a pair of 52-year-olds, and while enjoying an upper middle class lifestyle, they didn't want to spend money on excursions that might be better spent on tacky souvenirs. The couple therefore budgeted $250 for the excursions - the prices shown are per couple, so for example, the $60 will pay for both of them to fill up on jerk chicken and mannish water. For each of the duplicate excursions (e.g., snorkeling is offered in all three ports), the couple researched the quality of the activity and ranked the excursion among the available alternatives, with higher numbers indicating better quality. Thus, snorkeling in Jamaica is better than in Cozumel, and snorkeling in Cozumel is better than in Grand Cayman. For the unique experiences, i.e., the turtle farm, the default rating was the a 3. Site Rating Activity Cost Jamaica 3 snorkeling $100 Jamaica 1 party island $95 Jamaica 2 horseback ride $120 Jamaica 3 local cuisine $60 Cozumel 2 snorkeling $110 Cozumel 3 party island $55 Cozumel 1 horseback ride $70 Cozumel 2 local cuisine $90 Cozumel 3 tequila tasting $130 Grand Cayman 1 snorkeling $90 Grand Cayman 2 party island $60 Grand Cayman 3 horseback ride $110 Grand Cayman 1 local cuisine $130 Grand Cayman 3 turtle farm $95 (Note - data used in this test question should not be construed as vacation advice.) 98) What is an appropriate objective function for this vacation?

Using the scheme of location (J, C, or G) and excursion (S, P, H, L, Te or Tu), the objective function should be expressed as: Max Z = 3JS + 1JP + 2JH + 3JL + 2CS + 3CP + 1CH + 2CL + 3CTe + 1GS + 2GP + 3GH + 1GL + 3GTu

101) The first day on the cruise was a "day at sea" meaning no port of call, and only the amenities onboard for amusement. Restless and uncomfortably full after seven trips through the buffet, the management scientist gambled away most of his vacation money at the onboard casino. The excursions would be a necessity, but now it became less important to maximize the joy of the excursions and more vital to get off the boat as cheaply as possible while still staying busy at the three ports of call. What is an appropriate objective function for this modified cruise vacation?

There were ten students in the class and each was tasked with preparing two dishes to share with the rest of the group — either an entrée, a side, or a dessert. In order to make this meal optimal, their tour guide, who doubled as their management science professor, decided to model it as an integer program. He asked the students to rate themselves on their ability to prepare sweet or savory dishes and proteins or vegetables. Their ratings appear in the table.

The Wiethoff Company has a contract to produce 10,000 garden hoses for a customer. Wiethoff has four different machines that can produce this kind of hose. Because these machines are from different manufacturers and use differing technologies, their specifications are not the same. 107) This problem requires two different kinds of decision variables. Clearly define each kind.

xa = the number of hoses produced on machine a; ya = 1 if machine a is used, 0 if not

109) Write a constraint to ensure that if machine 4 is used, then machine 1 will not be used.

y1 + y4 ≤ 1

Due to increased sales, a company is considering building three new distribution centers (DCs) to serve four regional sales areas. The annual cost to operate DC 1 is $500 (in thousands of dollars). The cost to operate DC 2 is $600 (in thousands of dollars.). The cost to operate DC 3 is $525 (in thousands of dollars). Assume that the variable cost of operating at each location is the same, and therefore not a consideration in making the location decision. The table below shows the cost ($ per item) for shipping from each DC to each region. Region DC A B C D 1 1 3 3 2 2 2 4 1 3 3 3 2 2 3 The demand for region A is 70,000 units; for region B, 100,000 units; for region C, 50,000 units; and for region D, 80,000 units. Assume that the minimum capacity for the distribution center will be 500,000 units. 117) Define the decision variables for this situation.

y1 = 1 if DC1 is selected, 0 otherwise y2 = 1 if DC2 is selected, 0 otherwise y3 = 1 if DC3 is selected, 0 otherwise x1A = quantity shipped from DC 1 to Region A x1B = quantity shipped from DC 1 to Region B x1C = quantity shipped from DC 1 to Region C x1D = quantity shipped from DC 1 to Region D x2A = quantity shipped from DC 2 to Region A x2B = quantity shipped from DC 2 to Region B x2C = quantity shipped from DC 2 to Region C x2D = quantity shipped from DC 2 to Region D x3A = quantity shipped from DC 3 to Region A x3B = quantity shipped from DC 3 to Region B x3C = quantity shipped from DC 3 to Region C x3D = quantity shipped from DC 3 to Region D

66) The poultry farmer has in mind the following levels for each of his metrics of interest: a plumage score greater than 75, fertilizer production greater than 80 ounces per week, temperament less than 100 decibels, and an appetite less than 160 ounces of layer pellets per week. Use this portion of the sensitivity report to evaluate the following statements: (look at the chart) A) The noise level around the farm should be over 60 decibels. B) The fertilizer generated will be 160 ounces per week. C) Layer pellets will be consumed at the rate of 96 ounces per week. D) The plumage score will be less than 40.

72) Let: rj = regular production quantity for period j, oj = overtime production quantity in period j, ij = inventory quantity in period j, and dj = demand quantity in period j. Correct formulation of the demand constraint for a multiperiod scheduling problem is: A) rj + oj + i2 - i1 ≥ dj. B) rj + oj + i1 - i2 ≥ dj. C) rj + oj + i1 - i2 ≤ dj. D) rj - oj - i1 + i2 ≥ dj.

B) One additional pound of meat should be purchased if it can be acquired for $2 or less. C) There is both cheese and meat left over if the optimal product mix is produced. D) The shadow price of cheese can rise to 16.8167 before the right hand side changes.

53) Which of these is an appropriate constraint for this scenario? A) 5,000N + 3,000R + 700T + 200F ≤ 3,500 B) 500N + 250R + 125T + 15F ≤ 3,500 C) N + R + T + F ≥ 36 D) T ≤ 2,800

57) How should the entry for the Newspaper decision variable be interpreted?(look at the chart) A) The director should lower the newspaper advertising expense by $1,000 to reach the objective of 5,000 customers contacted. B) If the director were forced to purchase a newspaper advertisement, he would reach 1000 fewer customers than would be reached using the optimal advertising campaign. C) If the director increased newspaper advertisement by 1,000, he would spend $1000 less than with the current campaign. D) It is possible to reach an almost infinite fewer number (10 to the 30th power) of customers by newspaper than by any other method.

In a portfolio problem, X1, X2, and X3 represent the number of shares purchased of stocks 1, 2, and 3, which have selling prices of $15, $47.25, and $110, respectively. The investor has up to $50,000 to invest. 75) The stockbroker suggests limiting the investments so that no more than $10,000 is invested in stock 2 or the total number of shares of stocks 2 and 3 does not exceed 350, whichever is more restrictive.
