Rauschenberg Manufacturing is investigating which locations would best position its new plant relative to three important customers (located in cities A, B, and C). As shown in the table below, all three customers require multiple daily deliveries. Management limited the search for this plant to those three locations and compiled the following information: Location A B C Coordinates (miles) (200,100) (400,200) (300,100) a. Which of these three locations yields the smallest load-distance score, based on Euclidean distances? Location one decimal place.) b. Which of these locations is best, based on rectilinear distances? yields the smallest load-distance score of Location whole number.) c.

The Hills County, Michigan, superintendent of education is responsible for assigning students to the three high schools in his county. He recognizes the need to bus a certain number of students, for several sectors, A - E, of the county are beyond walking distance to a school. The superintendent partitions the county into five geographic sectors as he attempts to establish a plan that will minimize the total number of student miles traveled by bus. He also recognizes that if a student happens to live in a certain sector and is assigned to the high school in that sector, there is no need to bus him because he can walk to school. The three schools are located in sectors B, C, and E. The accompanying table reflects the number of high-school-age students living in each sector and the distance in miles from each sector to each school: Distance to School Sector School in Sector School in Sector School in Sector B C E A B C D E Total 7 0 4 5 12 5 4 0 4 7 6 12 7 7 0 Number of Students 700 500…

The HERCULES company's Process Manager should decide the location of his company's facilities. He has come up with 4 options in 4 communities. The table below shows fixed (land purchase costs, taxes, insurance, machinery, building erection costs, etc.) and variable costs (wages, materials, transportation costs, etc.) for each option Community Issues: A B с D Fixed costs (Annual) $ 150,000 $ 300,000 $ 500,000 $ 600,000 Variable costs (per unit of product) $ 62 $ 38 $ 24 $ 30 (a) Calculate the range of output for which each community minimizes its production costs. (b) If the expected demand for the product is 15,000 units per year, in which community would you advise the process manager to locate his company's plant?

Tommy Hilfiger is currently considering to source certain textile goods, Tommy Jeans, from Mexico. The estimated shipping time from Mexico to the U.S. for each shipment of Tommy Jeans is 4 days and the estimated freight cost of each shipment is $800. On the other hand, the current average shipping time from Vietnam to the U.S. for each shipment of Tommy Jeans is 23 days and the average freight cost is $2300. Even though the shipping time and freight cost seem to be much lower in case of Mexico, Tommy Hilfiger management is concerned about the production cost of each Jeans shipment. The management anticipates that the production cost of each Jeans shipment will be higher in Mexico compared to Vietnam. However, Tommy Hilfiger management has decided that even if the total cost (sum of production cost, freight cost, and holding cost) remain similar to Vietnam, Tommy Hilfiger will still source Jeans from Mexico because of the reduced shipping time, which, in turn, will result in better…
