Fabrics 1 & 2 can be manufactured only on the dobbie loom.
Solution:
Decision variables xij≔ Number of yards produced by loom j on product i, i=1,2,…,5, j=1,2 yi: Number of yards purchased purchased from another mill, i=1,2,…,5.
Parameters:
Di : demand of product i.
Rij: Loom rate spi: selling price of product i vci: varying cost of product i pi: purchase price of product i
Max i=15spi(j=12xij+yi)-i=15vcij=12xij-i=15pi*yi
s.t.
j=12xij+yi≥Di, i=1,2,…,5 (Demand) i=15x1j/Ri1≤8*24*30 (production capacity of Dobbie) i=15x2j/Ri2≤30*24*30(production capacity of Regular) xij≥0 i=1,2,…,5, j=1,2 x21=x22=0 (Fabrics 1 and 2 can be manufactured only on the dobbie loom)
Answers
1. The final production schedule and loom assignments for each fabric: Decision variables x_ij:=number of yards loom j produce product i | y_i:=number of yard product i is purchased | Fabric | Dobbie | Regular | | 1 | 4668.8 | 0 | 11831.2 | 2 | 22000 | 0 | 0 | 3 | 0 | 27707.80815 | 34292.19185 | 4
