QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS IN MANAGEMENT DECISION
1. A firm manufactures two products; the net profit on product 1 is Rupees 3 per unit
and Rupees 5 per unit on product 2. The manufacturing process is such that each
product has to be processed in two departments D1 and D2. Each unit of product1
requires processing for 1 minute at D1 and 3 minutes at D2; each unit of product 2
requires processing for 2 minutes at D1 and 2 minutes at D2. Machine time available
per day is 860 minutes at D1 and 1200 minutes at D2. How much of product 1 and 2
should be produced every day so that total profit is maximum. (solve with graphical
method)
2. Use the graphical method to solve the LPP
Maximize Z = 2X1 + 4X2
Subject to constraints:
X1 + 2X2 ≤ 5
X1 + X2 ≤ 4
And X1, X2 ≥ 0
3. Write the dual of following problems:
(a) Maximize Z = 7X1 + 5X2
Subject to:
X1 + 2X2 ≤ 6
4X1 + 3X2 ≤ 12
X1, X2 ≥ 0
(b) Maximize Z= 3X1 + 4X2
Subject to:
5X1 + 4X2 ≤ 200
3X1 + 5X2 ≤ 150
5X1 + 4X2 ≥ 100
8X1 + 4X2 ≥ 80
X1, X2 ≥ 0
4. Determine initial basic feasible solution to the following transportation problem
using the north west corner rule.
