Larkin Industries manufactures several lines of decorative and functional metal items. The most recent order has been for 1200 door lock units for an apartment complex developer. The sales and production departments must work together to determine delivery schedules. Each lock unit consists of three components: the knob and face plate, the actual lock itself, and a set of two keys. Although the processes used in the manufacture of the three components vary, there are three areas where the production manager is concerned about the availability of resources. These three areas, their usage by the three components, and their availability are detailed in the table.

Suppose a certain manufacturing company produces connecting rods for 4- and 6-cylinder automobile engines using the same production line. The cost required to set up the production line to produce the 4-cylinder connecting rods is $2,400, and the cost required to set up the production line for the 6-cylinder connecting rods is $3,600. Manufacturing costs are $14 for each 4-cylinder connecting rod and $19 for each 6-cylinder connecting rod. Hawkins makes a decision at the end of each week as to which product will be manufactured the following week. If a production changeover is necessary from one week to the next, the weekend is used to reconfigure the production line. Once the line has been set up, the weekly production capacities are 5,000 6-cylinder connecting rods and 7,000 4-cylinder connecting rods. Let 56 = 1 if the production line is set up to produce the 6-cylinder connecting rods; 0 if otherwise (a) Using the decision variables x4 and s, write a constraint that limits next…
