s Alan Industries is expanding its product line to include three new products: A, B, and C. These are to be produced on the same production equipment, and the objective is to meet the demands for the three products using overtime where necessary. The demand forecast for the next four months, in hours required to make each product is: PRODUCT APRIL 870 670 770 Regular time Overtime MAY 670 770 570 JUNE 870 970 770 Because the products deteriorate rapidly, there is a high loss in quality and, consequently, a high carrying cost when a product is made and carried in inventory to meet future demand. Each hour's production carried into future months costs $3 per production hour for A. $4 for B, and $5 for C APRIL 1,570 770 Production can take place either during regular working hours or during overtime. Regular time is paid at $4 when working on A. $5 for B, and S6 for C. The overtime premium is 50 percent of the regular time cost per hour The number of production hours available for regular…

A linear programming computer package is needed. Romans Food Market, located in Saratoga, New York, carries a variety of specialty foods from around the world. Two of the store's leading products use the Romans Food Market name: Romans Regular Coffee and Romans DeCaf Coffee. These coffees are blends of Brazilian Natural and Colombian Mild coffee beans, which are purchased from a distributor located in New York City. Because Romans purchases large quantities, the coffee beans may be purchased on an as-needed basis for a price 10% higher than the market price the distributor pays for the beans. The current market price is $0.47 per pound for Brazilian Natural and $0.62 per pound for Colombian Mild. The compositions of each coffee blend are as follows. Bean Max Brazilian Natural s.t.

Tim Rowe owns a small trucking firm that specializes in local and metro-area delivery in large city in the United States.All employment activities are handled by Tim who has always hired employees on the basis of three qualifications:1. They must have a high school diploma;2. They must pass a short paper-and-pencil test which is given to all applicants; and3. They must have a valid driver’s license if applying for the position of driver.The short test is interesting, as it was devised by Tim from sample questions found on a GED (General Education Degree) Equivalency Test. The test consists of 33 vocabulary and mathematical questions, each worth 3 points. Anyone scoring below 70 is automatically rejected.Last month two drivers quit, so Tim advertised in the local paper for two new drivers. Ten people applied for the openings, but Tim rejected four applicants because they were not high school graduates. Three others were rejected because of test scores below 70. The two white males hired…
