Plant Electronics Limited is considering producing three new computer boards on a daily basis. Each board will be produced from various combinations of plastic, copper and transistors. The amount of each resources required per unit, the unit profitability, and the availability of the resources are summarized in the following table:
Chip model
Plastic Copper Transistors Profit per unit GH¢ 𝑋12 2 1 1 4 T7 1 2 1 1.5 V8 1 1 1 3 Daily availability 80 80 70
(a) Formulate the linear programming problem to determine the production levels for three models X12, T7 and V8 that will maximize profit. (b) Use solver to find optimal solution and sensitivity report. c) Management have asked you to determine the optimal solution. Write your answer in a form of a report to be submitted to the management.
