Round Tree's management makes a forecast of the demand by rental class for each night in the future. A linear programming model developed to maximize profit is used to determine how many reservations to accept for each rental class. The demand forecast for a particular night is 120 rentals in the Super Saver class, 65 rentals in the Deluxe class, and 40 rentals in the Business class. Round Tree has 105 Type I rooms and 115 Type II rooms. Use linear programming to determine how many reservations to accept in each rental class and how the reservations should be allocated to room types.…arrow_forward
