Section: B
Let Wa, Ja, Pa be the weights of ‘A’ grade tomatoes used to can whole tomatoes,
tomato juice and tomato paste respectively (in pounds)
Also let Wb, Jb, Pb be the weights of ‘B’ grade tomatoes used to can whole
tomatoes, tomato juice and tomato paste respectively (in pounds)
Objective Function:
Subject to:
1. Wa + Ja + Pa <= 600000
2. Wb + Jb + Pb <= 2400000
3. Wa + Wb <= 800000
4. Ja + Jb <= 1000000
5. Pa + Pb <=2000000
6. (9*Wa + 5*Wb)/(Wa + Wb) >= 8
7. (9*Ja + 5*Jb)/(Ja + Jb) >= 6
8. (9*Pa + 5*Pb)/(Pa + Pb) >= 5
Product Item Profitability:
Solution:
Wa = 600000 pounds
Wb = 200000 pounds
Ja = 0 pounds
Jb = 0 pounds
Pa = 0 pounds
Pb = 2000000 pounds
Case 2: Extra Tomatoes purchased
Objective Function:
Subject to:
1. Wa + Ja + Pa <= 680000
2. Wb + Jb + Pb <= 2400000
3. Wa + Wb <= 800000
4. Ja + Jb <= 906664
5. Pa + Pb <=2000000
6. (9*Wa + 5*Wb)/(Wa + Wb) >= 8
7. (9*Ja + 5*Jb)/(Ja + Jb) >= 6
8. (9*Pa + 5*Pb)/(Pa + Pb) >= 5
9. Wa + Ja + Pa + Wb + Jb + Pb <= 3000000
Sensitivity Analysis:
Solution:
Wa = 645000 pounds
Wb = 215000 pounds
Ja = 35000 pounds
Jb = 105000 pounds
Pa = 0 pounds
Pb = 2000000 pounds
