Chapter 4.2, Problem 31E
Profit The Ball Company manufactures three types of lamps, labeled A, B, and C. Each lamp is processed in two departments, I and II. Total available work-hours per day for departments I and II are 400 and 600, respectively. No additional labor is available. Time requirements and profit per unit for each lamp type are as follows:
The company has assigned you as the accounting member of its profit planning committee to determine the numbers of types of A, B, and C lamps that it should produce in order to maximize its total profit from the sale of lamps. The following questions relate to a linear programming model that your group has developed. (For each part, choose one of the four answers.)
- (a) The coefficients of the objective function would be
- (1) 4, 2, 3.
- (2) 2, 3, 1.
- (3) 5, 4, 3.
- (4) 400, 600.
- (b) The constraints in the model would be
- (1) 2, 3, 1.
- (2) 5, 4, 3.
- (3) 4, 2, 3.
- (4) 400, 600.
- (c) The constraint imposed by the available work-hours in department I could be expressed as
- (1) 4X1 + 2X2 + 3X3 ≤ 400.
- (2) 4X1 + 2X2 + 3X3 ≥ 400.

The Lawson Fabric Mill Produces five different fabrics. Each fabric can be woven on one or more of the mill’s 36 looms. The sales department’s forecast of demand for the next month is shown in below Table 1, along with data on the selling price per yard, variable cost per yard, and purchase price per yard. The mill operates 24 hours a day and is scheduled for 30 days during the coming month. The mill has two types of looms: draw and regular. The draw looms are more versatile and can be used for all five fabrics. The regular looms can produce only three of the fabrics. The mill has a total of 36 looms: 8 are draw and 28 are regular. The rate of production for each fabric on each type of loom is given in below Table 2. The time required to change over from producing one fabric to another is negligible and does not have to be considered.
The Lawson Fabric Mill satisfies all demand with either its own fabric or fabric purchased from another mill. Fabrics that cannot be woven at the…
