Develop a decision analysis formulation of this problem by identifying the decision alternatives, state of nature, and the payoff table.
Formulate decision variable, objective function, and constraints only. Eastborne Realty has $2 million available for the purchase of new rental property. After an initial screening, Eastborne reduced the investment alternatives to townhouses and apartment buildings. Each townhouse can be purchased for $282,000, and five are available. Each apartment building can be purchased for $400,000, and the developer will construct as many buildings as Eastborne wants to purchase. Eastborne’s property manager can devote up to 140 hours per month to these new properties; each townhouse is expected to require 4 hours per month, and each apartment building is expected to require 40 hours per month. The annual cash flow, after deducting mortgage payments and operating expenses, is estimated to be $10,000 per townhouse and $15,000 per apartment building. Eastborne’s owner would like to determine the number of townhouses and the number of apartment buildings to purchase to maximize annual cash flow.
What combination of x and y will yield the optimum for this problem? Maximize Z = $3x + $15y Subject to: Multiple Choice x= 0, y=4 x= 0, y=3 x= 0, y=0 x= 2y=0 O x=1,y=25 2x + 4y ≤ 12 5x + 2y ≤ 10
