Question:

5. An oil company distills two types of crude oil,A and B, to produce regular and premium gasoline and jet fuel. There are limits on the daily availability of crude oil and the minimum demand for the final products. If the production is not sufficient to cover demand, the shortage must be made up from outside sources at a penalty. Surplus production will not be sold immediately and will incur storage cost. The following table provides the data of the situation:

Fraction yield per bbl Crude Regular Premium Jet Price/bbl ($) bbl/day Crude A .20 .1 .25 30 2500 Crude B .25 .3 .10 40 3000 Demand (bbllday) 500 700 400 Revenue ($/bbl) 50 70 120 Storage cost for surplus production ($ibbl) 2 3 4 Penalty for unfilled demand ($/bbl) 10 15 20 Determine the optimal product mix for the refinery.
