  • Currently, 4,600 pounds of steel and 5,000 machine hours areavailable.
  • To meet customer demands, exactly 950 total products must beproduced.
  • Customers also demand that at least 400 units of Product W beproduced.

Formulate an LP that can be used to maximize sales revenue forthe manufacturer.

LP Formula

Let Pi be the number of product type i produced by themanufacturer, where i = X, Y, X, and W.

MAXIMIZE  4 PX + 6 PY + 7 PZ + 8 PW

Subject To

2 PX + 3 PY + 4 PZ + 7 PW <= 4600   !Available Steel

3 PX + 4 PY + 5 PZ + 6 PW <= 5000   !Available Machine Hours

PX + PY + PZ + PW    =950               !Total Demand

                            PW>=400               !Product W Demand

PX >=0

PY >=0

PZ >=0

PW >=0

Suppose manufacturer raises the price of Product Y by 50¢ perunit. What is the new optimal solution to the LP?

Objective Function Value:

PX:
