Gilbert Moss and Angela Pasaic spent several summers during their college years
working at archaeological sites in the Southwest. While at those digs, they learned how to make
ceramic tiles from local artisans. After college they made use of their college experiences to start
a tile manufacturing firm called Mossaic Tiles, Ltd. They opened their plant in New Mexico,
where they would have convenient access to a special clay they intend to use to make a clay
derivative for their tiles.
Their manufacturing operation consists of a few relatively simple but precarious steps,
including molding the tiles, baking, and glazing. Gilbert and Angela plan to produce two basic
types of tile for use in home bathrooms, kitchens, sunrooms, and laundry rooms. The two types
of tile are a larger, single-colored tile and a smaller, patterned tile.
In the manufacturing process, the color or pattern is added before a tile is glazed. Either a
single color is sprayed over the top of a baked set of tiles or a stenciled pattern is sprayed on the
top of a baked set of tiles.
The tiles are produced in batches of 100. The first step is to pour the clay derivative into
specially constructed molds. It takes 18 minutes to mold a batch of 100 larger tiles and 15
minutes to prepare a mold for a batch of 100 smaller tiles. The company has 60 hours available
each week for molding. After the tiles are molded, they are baked in a kiln: 0.27 hour for a batch
of 100 larger tiles and 0.58 hour for a batch of 100 smaller tiles. The company has 105 hours
available each week for baking. After baking, the tiles are either colored or patterned and glazed.
This process takes 0.16 hour for a batch of 100 larger tiles and 0.20 hour for a batch of 100
smaller tiles. Forty hours are available each week for the glazing process. Each batch of 100
large tiles requires 32.8 pounds of the clay derivative to produce, whereas each batch of smaller
tiles requires 20 pounds. The company has 6,000 pounds of the clay derivative available each
week.
Mossaic Tiles earns a profit of $190 for each batch of 100 of the larger tiles and $240 for
each batch of 100 smaller patterned tiles.
Angela and Gilbert want to know how many batches of each type of tile to produce each
week to maximize profit. In addition, they have some questions about resource usage they would
like answered.
j. Mossaic is considering adding capacity to one of its kilns to provide 20 additional glazing
hours per week, at a cost of $90,000. Should it make the investment?
k. The kiln for glazing had to be shut down for 3 hours, reducing the available kiln hours
from 40 to 37. What effect will this have on the solution?
l. What are the reduced costs for larger and smaller tiles? Explain.
