Customers are served in a process with two resources (workers in each resource work independently). The processing time (per worker) of the first resource is 1.2 hours. The processing time (per worker) of the second resource is 2.1 hours. The first resource has 3 workers and the second resource has 2 workers. Assume 2 workers are added to the process and all of them are assigned to one of the resources. What would be the capacity of this process? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 3 decimal places. Capacity of customers per hour

QL (“Quebec Lumber”) is a logging and wood processing firm in a remote part of the Canadian province of Quebec. They have recently acquired a remote track of timber that is located ten miles from their processing facility. Normally, this is not a problem as they are able to simply cut the timber and haul it using trucks to their processing facility. However, this track of forestland is ten miles to their north, and there are no roads connecting the tract of land to their facility. They have also acquired a narrow (120 foot wide) ten-mile strip of land connecting this tract of timber to their processing facility. QL considered building their own road between the two points, and have log trucks haul the logs to the processing facility. However, they have decided instead to go with a less expensive option, a narrow gauge railroad. The narrow gauge railroad would require the laying of ties and steel tracks, and will require a custom-built locomotive and rolling stock (train cars that will…

Can someone please help solve.
please do it in excel BETTER PRODUCTS COMPANY has decided to start manufacturing four new products in three plants that currently have excess production capacity. The products require comparable production effort per unit, so the available production capacity in the plants is measured by the number of units of any product that can be manufactured per day. a)Formulate this problem as a transportation problem by constructing the appropriate parameter table. Note:One image is of the data and the other image is option 1 to solve the exercise.
Scenario Office Equipment, Inc. (OEI) leases automatic mailing machines to business customers in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The company built its success on a reputation of providing timely maintenance and repair service. Each OEI service contract states that a service technician will arrive at a customer’s business site within an average of 3 hours from the time that the customer notifies OEI of an equipment problem. Currently, OEI has 10 customers with service contracts. One service technician is responsible for handling all service calls. A statistical analysis of historical service records indicates that a customer requests a service call at an average rate of one call per 50 hours of operation. If the service technician is available when a customer calls for service, it takes the technician an average of 1 hour of travel time to reach the customer’s office and an average of 1.5 hours to complete the repair service. However, if the service technician is busy with another customer when a…

State University has decided to reconstruct the sidewalks throughout the east side of its campus to provide wheelchair access. However, upgrading sidewalks is a very expensive undertaking, so for the first phase of this project, university administrators want to make sure they connect all buildings with wheelchair access with the minimum number of refurbished sidewalks possible.Following is a network of the existing sidewalks on the east side of campus, with the feet between each building shown on the branches:
The following network describes a transportation scenario in which there are four sources A, B, C, and D, and three destinations P, Q, and R. (The numbers next to each arrow represent the cost of transporting one unit from that particular source to the destination located at the other end of that arrow). Write the mathematical formulation of the problem. Use the Excel Solver to solve the problem. Generate the answer and sensitivity reports in Excel, and submit your Excel workbook as a separate attachment. Provide the solution obtained in the space provided. What is the optimal cost of transportation?
Show your step-by-step process using the SPECIAL PURPOSE LINEAR PROGRAMMING: ASSIGNMENT METHOD to solve this problem. Four Engineers are to work on 4 projects of Dora Company. The problem is to decide which engineer should be assigned to which project. Each engineer charges different fees on each project, due to distances of the projects and the complexity of the work. The cost of assigning particular engineers to particular projects are as stated below. The objective is to find the lease cost of assignment. Engineer 1 to Projects A, B, C, D = $11k, $8k, $10k, $7k respectively.Engineer 2 to Projects A, B, C, D = $6k, $5k, $3k, $8k respectively.Engineer 3 to Projects A, B, C, D = $4k, $8k, $10k, $9k respectively.Engineer 4 to Projects A, B, C, D = $11k, $10k, $5k, $7k respectively.
A retail catalog operation employs a bank of six telephone operators who process orders using computer terminals. When a terminal breaks down, it must be disconnected and taken to a nearby electronic repair shop, where it is repaired. The mean time between terminal breakdowns is six working days, and the mean time required to repair a terminal is two working days (both exponentially distributed). As a result of lost sales, it costs the mail-order operation an estimated $50 per day in lost profits each day a terminal is out for repair. The company pays the electronics repair shop $3000 per year on a service agreement to repair the terminals. The company is considering the possibility of signing a new service agreement with another electronics repair shop that will provide subsitutute terminals while the broken ones are at the repair shop. However, the new service agreement would cost the mail-order operation $15,000 per year. Assuming that there are 250 working days in a year, determine…
