- The Tinkan Company produces one-pound cans for the Canadian salmon industry. Each year the salmon spawn during a 24-hour period and must be canned immediately. Tinkan has the following agreement with the salmon industry. The company can deliver as many cans as it chooses. Then the salmon are caught. For each can by which Tinkan falls short of the salmon industrys needs, the company pays the industry a 2 penalty. Cans cost Tinkan 1 to produce and are sold by Tinkan for 2 per can. If any cans are left over, they are returned to Tinkan and the company reimburses the industry 2 for each extra can. These extra cans are put in storage for next year. Each year a can is held in storage, a carrying cost equal to 20% of the cans production cost is incurred. It is well known that the number of salmon harvested during a year is strongly related to the number of salmon harvested the previous year. In fact, using past data, Tinkan estimates that the harvest size in year t, Ht (measured in the number of cans required), is related to the harvest size in the previous year, Ht1, by the equation Ht = Ht1et where et is normally distributed with mean 1.02 and standard deviation 0.10. Tinkan plans to use the following production strategy. For some value of x, it produces enough cans at the beginning of year t to bring its inventory up to x+Ht, where Ht is the predicted harvest size in year t. Then it delivers these cans to the salmon industry. For example, if it uses x = 100,000, the predicted harvest size is 500,000 cans, and 80,000 cans are already in inventory, then Tinkan produces and delivers 520,000 cans. Given that the harvest size for the previous year was 550,000 cans, use simulation to help Tinkan develop a production strategy that maximizes its expected profit over the next 20 years. Assume that the company begins year 1 with an initial inventory of 300,000 cans.It costs a pharmaceutical company 75,000 to produce a 1000-pound batch of a drug. The average yield from a batch is unknown but the best case is 90% yield (that is, 900 pounds of good drug will be produced), the most likely case is 85% yield, and the worst case is 70% yield. The annual demand for the drug is unknown, with the best case being 20,000 pounds, the most likely case 17,500 pounds, and the worst case 10,000 pounds. The drug sells for 125 per pound and leftover amounts of the drug can be sold for 30 per pound. To maximize annual expected profit, how many batches of the drug should the company produce? You can assume that it will produce the batches only once, before demand for the drug is known.Lemingtons is trying to determine how many Jean Hudson dresses to order for the spring season. Demand for the dresses is assumed to follow a normal distribution with mean 400 and standard deviation 100. The contract between Jean Hudson and Lemingtons works as follows. At the beginning of the season, Lemingtons reserves x units of capacity. Lemingtons must take delivery for at least 0.8x dresses and can, if desired, take delivery on up to x dresses. Each dress sells for 160 and Hudson charges 50 per dress. If Lemingtons does not take delivery on all x dresses, it owes Hudson a 5 penalty for each unit of reserved capacity that is unused. For example, if Lemingtons orders 450 dresses and demand is for 400 dresses, Lemingtons will receive 400 dresses and owe Jean 400(50) + 50(5). How many units of capacity should Lemingtons reserve to maximize its expected profit?
- At a small but growing airport, the local airline company is purchasing a new tractor for a tractor-trailer train to bring luggage to and from the airplanes. A new mechanized luggage system will be installed in 3 years, so the tractor will not be needed after that. However, because it will receive heavy use, so that the running and maintenance costs will increase rapidly as the tractor ages, it may still be more economical to replace the tractor after 1 or 2 years. The following table gives the total net discounted cost associated with purchasing a tractor (purchase price minus trade-in allowance, plus running and maintenance costs) at the end of year i and trading it in at the end of year j (where year O is now). i 012 1 $13,000 j 2 $28,000 $17,000 3 $48,000 $33,000 $20,000 The problem is to determine at what times (if any) the tractor should be replaced to minimize the total cost for the tractors over 3 years.

- Kofi Abebrese runs a small industrial company that specialize in the production of high standard windows for housing estates. A worker is paid GHC0.9 per hour and can produce two window with an hour. Each window uses a frame costing GHC1 and incur a variable overheads of GHC0.7. Each window sells for GH¢3. Currently, due to the economic condition, work is rather slack and three employees are occupied in carrying out extensive repairs to Kofi Abebrese's own house. Kofi owns a warehouse next to the factory, which had been used as a factory store, in the past. It is now let out on a renewable annual lease of GHC600. A new building company, Allied Consult, which specializes in the production of prefabricated houses has asked Kofi if he would be interested in accepting a contract for GHC30,000 which will be for a year initially, to produced molded internal building sections. Kofi estimates that, the contract will take 13,200 hours of works, or the work of five men for a year, and that…3.

- You are asked to help your boss deciding who is considering whether to make or buy a part fora top most demanding product of the company.Your company can make the component for $40 per unit or buy it for $50 per unit from vendor.If the Company decides to make the component, it will require 4 hours of machine time tomake each part. The company has 2,000 hours of machine time available per month. Shouldthe company make or buy the component? How many max parts company can make?________________________________________________________________4) The making of rivet holes in structural steel members can be done by 2 methods. The first method consists of laying out the position of the holes in the members and using a drill press costing P100k. The machinist is paid P60 per hour and he can drill 80 holes per hour. The second method makes use of a multiple-punch machine costing P80k. The punch operator is paid P40 an hour and he can punch out 1 hole for 3 seconds. This method also requires an expense of P1.25 per hole to set the machine. (a) if all other costs are assumed equal, what is the total cost for each machine for 10k holes, assuming the total cost of each machine to be charged to these holes? (b) for how many holes will the costs be equal?During an eight-hour shift, 750 non-defective parts are desired as a result of a manufacturing operation. The default operation time is 15 minutes. As the operators of machine are inexperienced, the actual time they take to perform the operation is 20 minutes, and, on average, a fifth of the parts that start to be manufactured are lost. Assuming that each one of the machines used in this operation will not be available for one hour in each shift, determine the number of machines needed.
