Summary Introduction
To identify: Constitutes of feasible solution area on the linear programming model solved graphically.
Linear programming is a quantitative technique in mathematical approach to determine the operational level activity to achieve an objective function by providing an optimal solution i.e. to maximize the profit, or to minimize the total which is restricted to constraints. The term linear represents the relationship between the objective function and constraints.

- Seas Beginning sells clothing by mail order. An important question is when to strike a customer from the companys mailing list. At present, the company strikes a customer from its mailing list if a customer fails to order from six consecutive catalogs. The company wants to know whether striking a customer from its list after a customer fails to order from four consecutive catalogs results in a higher profit per customer. The following data are available: If a customer placed an order the last time she received a catalog, then there is a 20% chance she will order from the next catalog. If a customer last placed an order one catalog ago, there is a 16% chance she will order from the next catalog she receives. If a customer last placed an order two catalogs ago, there is a 12% chance she will order from the next catalog she receives. If a customer last placed an order three catalogs ago, there is an 8% chance she will order from the next catalog she receives. If a customer last placed an order four catalogs ago, there is a 4% chance she will order from the next catalog she receives. If a customer last placed an order five catalogs ago, there is a 2% chance she will order from the next catalog she receives. It costs 2 to send a catalog, and the average profit per order is 30. Assume a customer has just placed an order. To maximize expected profit per customer, would Seas Beginning make more money canceling such a customer after six nonorders or four nonorders?arrow_forwardWhat do Linear programming problems involve?arrow_forwardDiscuss several advantages of linear programming; clearly explain the reasons for your choices.arrow_forward

- Problem 2: Applications of Linear Programming: Visa Inc. Stock sells for $92 a share and has 3-year average annual return of $20 a share. The beta value is 1.06. JP Morgan Chase and Co. sells for $87 a share and has a 3-year average annual return of $17 a share. The beta value is 1.21. Derek wants to spend no more than $15,000 investing in these two stocks, but he wants to earn at least $2500 in annual revenue. Derek also wants to minimize the risk. Determine the number of shares of each stock that Derek should buy.arrow_forwardConsider this problem for the next five questions: At Kahel Enterprises, a producer of orange crates sold to growers, they are able to produce 450 crates per 100 logs with their current equipment. They currently purchase 100 logs per day, and each log requires 1.5 labor hours to process. They believe that they can hire a professional buyer who can buy better-quality log at the same cost. If this is the case, they can increase their production to 480 crates per 100 logs. Their total labor hours, on the other hand, will increase by an additional 2 hours per day (this is due to the additional logistics operations needed with the professional buyer). Given below are the cost per component in the system, which includes the labor cost, material cost, capital cost, and energy and utility cost.
