The production planner for Rienzo, Inc. produces two chemicals: Alpha (A) and Delta (D). Two of his resources are constrained: Jaya, of which he can get at most 8,400 litres per week; and Sanga, of which he can get at most 4,600 litres per week. Each unit of Alpha chemical requires 16 litres of Jaya and 7 litres of Sanga, while a unit of Delta chemical uses 8 litres of each type of raw material. Profits for the Alpha blend are £3.00 per unit, and profits for the Delta blend are £5.00 per unit. Question 10 What is the objective function?

- A manufacturing cell makes three models of a product – AKC1011, BC0001, and AC0102. The daily demand for the three products are as follows: 200 of AKC1011, 500 BC0001, and 300 of AC0102. Develop a balanced mixed-model sequence that should be repeated throughout the day in order to meet demand.The seasonal yield of olives in a Piraeus, Greece, vineyard is greatly influenced by a process of branch pruning. If olive trees are pruned every two weeks, output is increased. The pruning process, however, requires considerably more labor than permitting the olives to grow on their own and results in a smaller size olive. It also, though, permits olive trees to be spaced closer together. The yield of 1 barrel of olives by pruning requires 5 hours of labor and 1 acre of land. The production of a barrel of olives by the normal process requires only 2 labor hours but takes 2 acres of land. An olive grower has 250 hours of labor available and a total of 150 acres for growing. Because of the olive size difference, a barrel of olives produced on pruned trees sells for $20, whereas a barrel of regular olives has a market price of $30. The grower has determined that because of uncertain demand, no more than 40 barrels of pruned olives should be produced. Use graphical LP to find (a) the…fi Auto mobile company manufactures cars and trucks. Each vehicle must be processed in the paint shop and body assembly shop. If the paint shop were only painting trucks, then 80 per day could be painted. If the paint shop were only painting cars, then 120 per day could be painted. If the body shop were only producing cars, then it could process 100 per day. If the body shop were only producing trucks, then it could process 100 per day. Each truck contributes GHS60,000 to profit, and each car contributes GHS40,000 to profit. Use linear programming to determine a daily production schedule that will maximize the company’s profits.
- A manufacturing plant produces a product 'A' that requires one unit of 'B' and ½ unit of 'C'. Each unit of 'B' is comprised of one unit of 'D', two units of 'E', and one unit of 'F'. Each unit of 'C' requires ½ unit of 'G' and three units of 'H'. The manufacturing lead times for the components are as follows: 'A' - two weeks, 'B' - one week, 'C' - two weeks, 'D' - two weeks, 'E' - three weeks, 'F' - one week, 'G' - two weeks, 'H' - one week. There are 20 units in stock for each of these components. 100 units of 'A' are needed for delivery in seven weeks: a) Develop the product structure and indexed bill of materials for the product. b) Create a gross and net requirements plan for the manufacturer of the product.K 2. Meritor, a company that makes muffler assemblies for the automotive industry, is committed to the use of kanban to pull material through its manufacturing cells. Meritor has designed each cell to fabricate a specific family of muffler products. Fabricating a muffler assembly involves cutting and bending pieces of pipe that are welded to a muffler and a catalytic converter. The mufflers and catalytic converters are pulled into the cell based on current demand. The catalytic converters are made in a specialized cell. Catalytic converters are made in batches of 15 units and are moved in special hand carts to the fabrication cells. The catalytic converter cell is designed so that different types of catalytic converters can be made with virtually no setup loss. Meritor hires a team of consultants. The consultants suggest a partial robotic automation, as well as an increase in safety stock to 12.5 percent. Meritor implements these suggestions. The result is an increase in efficiency in…Plainwell Polymers is going to producing the main dashboard structure for a new car design. The dashboard will be produced in three colors with expected daily demand as follows: Black: 365 units/day Grey: 110 units/day Tan: 210 units/day The injection-molding machine can produce a total of 1,090 parts per day running 24 hours per day. It costs Plainwell $1,040 to set up each color for producition and the daily holding cost for each part is $0.49. What is the length of the lowest cost cyclic schedule (ignoring setup time constraints) in days?

Only 200kgs of a special alloy is available in the period. The usage of special alloy is 2kgs per unit and 4kgs per unit respectively. There is an agreement with a trade association to produce no more than 50 units of product B in the period. Advise the company on the production plan that will maximize contribution.5. Luther’s company has just received an order for 1,200 of its Flying Z machines. The customer wants 350 of them next year, 400 the year after, and the balance in the third year. Luther estimates that after one year of production, the average worker with this one year of experience can produce 12 machines per year. However, new workers are 25% less productive in the first year. He has 25 workers with at least one year of experience to work on the first year’s order. He will need to hire new workers for any production that exceeds what these workers can produce. To further complicate matters, he believes 10% of his current experienced workforce will turnover at the end of the first year and the number of workers from his current workforce should remain steady after that. His history also shows that only 75% of new hires stay after their first year. Given these facts, how many total people should Luther plan to hire over the duration of this order?

Roedel produces two different sizes of integrated keyboard tablet stands, small and large. Each size uses the same keyboard attachment, but the stand consists of two different pieces, a top flap and a vertical stand that differ by size. Thus, a completed integrated keyboard tablet stand consists of three subassemblies that are manufactured by Roedel: a keyboard, a top flap and a vertical stand. Roedel's sales forecast indicates that 7,000 small integrated keyboard tablet stands and 5,000 large integrated keyboard tablet stands will be needed to satisfy demand during the upcoming Christmas season. Because only 500 hours of in-house manufacturing time are available, Roedel is considering purchasing some, or all, of the subassemblies from outside suppliers.
