According to the data above:
X: # of BodyPlus100 to be produced.
Y: # of BodyPlus200 to be produced.
Equations # 1:
8X + 12Y ≤ 600
5X + 10Y ≤ 450
2X + 2Y ≤ 140
X ≥ 0 and Y ≥ 0
BFI get only 70% of the retail price, as follows:
Revenue = (2400 * 0.7X) + (3500 * 0.7Y) = 1680X + 2450Y
The cost of packaging plus raw materials cost is given by:
1050X + 1575Y
The labour cost in the 3 departments is given by:
(8X + 12Y) * 20 + (5X + 10Y) * 15 + (2X + 2Y) * 12; 259X + 414Y
Then, the total cost is calculated as follows:
1050X + 259X = 1309X
1575Y + 414Y = 1989Y; 1309X + 1989Y
And the profit is the difference between revenue minus cost, and is given by:
1680X – 1309X = 371X
2450Y – 1989Y = 461Y
Equation # 2:
Profit = 371X + 461Y
The requirement that the BodyPlus 200 must be at least 25% of the total production:
Y ≥ (X + Y) * 0.20 → X – 3Y ≥ 0
Q1. What is the recommended number of BodyPlus 100 and BodyPlus 200 machines to produce?
Objective: Max 371X + 461Y
S.T.
Total Hours Available 8X + 12Y <= 600
Machining and Welding 5X + 10Y <= 450
Painting and Finishing 2X + 2Y <= 140
