Mr. Meadows Cookie Company makes a variety of chocolate chip
cookies in the plant in Albion, Michigan. Based on orders received
and forecasts of buy-ing habits, it is estimated that the demand
for the next four months is 850, 1,260, 510, and 980, expressed in
thousands of cookies. During a 46-day period when there were 120
workers, the company produced 1.7 million cookies. Assume that the
number of workdays over the four months are respectively 26, 24,
20, and 16. There are currently 100 workers employed, and there is
no starting inventory of cookies.
What is the minimum constant workforce required to meet demand
over the next four months?
Assume that cI = 10 cents per cookie per month, cH = $100, and
cF = $200. Evaluate the cost of the plan derived in part (a).
Formulate as a linear program. Be sure to define all variables
and include the required constraints.
Solve for the optimal solution.
Suppose that the cost of hiring workers each period is $100 for
each worker until 20 workers are hired, $400 for each worker when
between 21 and 50 workers are hired, and $700 for each worker hired
beyond 50.
Write down the complete linear programming formulation of the
revised problem.
