Petfoods makes dog food using a blend of three ingredients: K9, K8 and K1. The company has a regular blend, an extra blend and a puppy delite. The regular blend consists of one third of each ingredient; the extra blend is 50% K9 and 25% each of K8 and K1. The puppy delite is 10% K8 and the rest K1. The dog food is produced in 1-pound cans. There are 1500 pounds of K9, and 1000 pounds of each of the other ingredients available. The regular blend yields a profit of $0.20 per can, the extra blend a profit of $0.18 a can and the puppy delite a profit of $0.25 per can. Formulate an LP that can be used to maximize profit. Can you show this in excel step by step
The Yum and Yee food truck near the business school serves customers during lunch hour by taking orders and making fresh batches of stir-fry. Customers have only one choice during the lunch hour so that Y&Y can maximize the number of customers served. Assume that each customer places just one lunch order, and all lunch orders are the same size: one unit of stir-fry. The stir-fry cooking works in this manner. First, one person cooks a batch of orders in a wok. The cooking depends upon the number of orders in the batch. The time to cook just one order is 3.3 minutes. For each additional order in the batch, it takes 0.5 minute more to cook. Thus, cooking two orders in a batch takes 3.8 minutes, cooking three orders takes 4.3 minutes, and so on. The other process is bagging and accepting payments (done by a separate person), which takes 0.9 minute per order. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 1 decimal place.) a. What is the setup time of this process? (Do not…
You have been commissioned to estimate the demand curve for admission to Lake Saint- Michel, a recreational fishing site in France. To do this, you spend a day surveying visitor to the site. You divide the area around the site into 3 zones. You ask each person you interview where they come from. Based on that information, and figures on annual attendance at the park, you are able to calculate the annual number of visitors from each zone. Your data are shown below. For each zone, the total travel cost 1 euro per person for each kilometer traveled to and from the site. One-Way Distance from Park Origin Total Number of Population Users (in kilometer) A 6.25 125,000 18,750 B 12.5 937,500 93,750 18.75 1,250,000 62,500 b. Suppose a fee were charged to enter the site. What is the per capita demand function for each origin? Please express the relationship in an equation. Calculate the number of visitors and consumer surplus if no fee were C. charged to enter the park.
John’s Weed-B-Gone yard service sprays lawns to rid them of weeds. John mixes the two chemicals, Weed-X and Pest-O, in proportions depending on the climate and the particular weed problems of the season. A standard mix calls for a gallon of the mixture to combine equal parts of Weed-X and Pest-O. Weed-X has a standard cost of $10.40 per gallon and Pesto-O has a standard cost of $25.20 per gallon. Each gallon can treat 100 square yards of lawn. John expects to treat 535,000 square yards of lawn. For the past season, John treated 646,000 square yards. He used 3,600 gallons of Weed-X and 3,400 gallons of Pest-O. He paid a total of $30,960 for the Weed-X and $82,960 for the Pest-O. Required: a. Compute the materials price and efficiency variances for the season. b. Compute the materials mix and yield variances for the season.

The Sedona Company is dedicated to making products that meet the needs of customers in a sustainable manner. Sedona is best known for its KLN water bottle, which is a BPA-free, dishwasher-safe, bubbly glass bottle in a soft silicone sleeve. The production process consists of three basic operations. In the first operation, the glass is formed by remelting cullets (broken or refuse glass). In the second operation, the glass is assembled with the silicone gasket and sleeve. The resulting product is finished in the final operation with the addition of the polypropylene cap. Consulting studies have indicated that of the total conversion costs required to complete a finished unit, the forming operation requires 60%, the assembly 30%, and the finishing 10%. Cullets purchased $67,500 Silicone purchased $24,000 Polypropylene used $ 6,000 Total conversion costs incurred $68,850 Ending inventory, cullets $ 4,500 Ending inventory, silicone $ 3,000 Number of bottles completed and transferred…
Columbia Pizza and make a pizza in 10 minutes with the one oven that they have. Their late-night business among hungry college students is booming, and they average 5 pizza orders/hour from 9 PM – 11 PM. Between 5 PM and 9 PM, they average 3 pizza orders/hour. Assume that each person orders one pizza, and that people arrive according to a Poisson distribution. The owner of Columbia Pizza has discovered that if customers have to wait for more than 20 minutes from when they enter the shop to when they receive their pizza, they are likely to go next door to University Falafel, meaning that Columbia Pizza loses a $20 sale. The owner is thinking of buying a second oven and register (e.g. a second channel). The owner has analyzed that the total cost of operation (the amortized cost of the additional oven and the salary of the staff) would be $75 per night. What is the total revenue opportunity with one oven, given the 20 minute time constraint from entering the shop to receiving their pizza?…

Clearview Window Company manufactures windows for the home-building industry. The window frames are produced in the Frame Division. The frames are then transferred to the Glass Division, where the glass and hardware are installed. The company’s best-selling product is a three-by-four-foot, doublepaned operable window. The Frame Division also can sell frames directly to custom home builders, who install the glass and hardware. The sales price for a frame is $80. The Glass Division sells its finished windows for $190. The markets for both frames and finished windows exhibit perfect competition. The standard variable cost of the window is detailed as follows: Frame Division Glass Division Direct material $ 15 $ 30 * Direct labor 20 15 Variable overhead 30 30 Total $ 65 $ 75 *Not including the transfer price for the frame.
