Chapter 3.6, Problem 1P

a)

Summary Introduction

To track: The values in the decision variable cells and the objective cell when the selling price for basics vary from $220 to $350 in increments of $10.

Introduction: In linear programming, the unbounded solution would occur when the objective function is infinite. If no solution satisfied the constraints then it is said to be an unfeasible solution.

b)

Summary Introduction

To track: The values in the decision variable cells and the objective cell when the labor cost per hour for assembling vary from $5 to $20 in increments of $1.

Introduction: In linear programming, the unbounded solution would occur when the objective function is infinite. If no solution satisfied the constraints then it is said to be an unfeasible solution.

c)

Summary Introduction

To track: The values in the decision variable cells and the objective cell when the labor hours for testing vary from 0.5 to 3.0 in increments of 0.5.

Introduction: In linear programming, the unbounded solution would occur when the objective function is infinite. If no solution satisfied the constraints then it is said to be an unfeasible solution.

d)

Summary Introduction

To track: The values in the decision variable cells and the objective cell when the labor hours for assembling and testing an XP vary independently.

Introduction: In linear programming, the unbounded solution would occur when the objective function is infinite. If no solution satisfied the constraints then it is said to be an unfeasible solution.

After much anticipation Goople releases a new smartphone. In anticipation of the new phone, Goople's stock price increases. However, once launched, the smartphone does even more than what was anticipated and buyers are buying all of the phones available. Goople's phones are on back order for 8 months. The unexpectedly positive reaction to the smartphone would raise the present value and the price of the corporation's stock. raise the present value and reduce the price of the corporation's stock. reduce the present value and the price of the corporation's stock. reduce the present value and raise the price of the corporation's stock.
That One Book sells its books through The Witch and the Wardrobe bookstores. It costs That One Book $0.80 to print each book; it sells the book to The Witch and the Wardrobe for $2.50. The Witch and the Wardrobe then sells the books at retail for $6.00. Whatever doesn’t sell gets thrown away. Demand for the book each issue is normal with a mean of 5219 and a standard deviation of 1610. To give The Witch and the Wardrobe incentive to order more books, it proposes a revenue-sharing contract. Instead of selling the book to The Witch and the Wardrobe for $2.50, That One Book will sell its books to The Witch and the Wardrobe for only $1.00. However, for each book that The Witch and the Wardrobe sells at retail, The Witch and the Wardrobe must give $2.00 back to That One Book. With this revenue sharing agreement in place, what is the optimal order amount that will maximize The Witch and the Wardrobe expected profit?   Please do fast ASAP
Models of inventory systems frequently consider the relationships among a beginning inventory,a production quantity, a demand or sales, and an ending inventory. For a givenproduction period j, letsj-1 = ending inventory from the previous period (beginning inventory for period j)xj = production quantity in period jdj = demand in period jsj = ending inventory for period ja. Write the mathematical relationship or model that shows ending inventory as a functionof beginning inventory, production, and demand.b. What constraint should be added if production capacity for period j is given by Cj?c. What constraint should be added if inventory requirements for period j mandate anending inventory of at least Ij?
