answer A and B

1. The Center-of-Gravity Problem: McDonald's has 7 restaurants in a resort area. They are considering locating a central warehouse that would deliver products to each store. The number next to each restaurant gives the anticipated number of deliveries that would need to be made each month. a) What is the simple grid solution to this problem? Assume R is constipt for each location. This assumption allows us to ignore R (it cancels out). Alternatively (and equivalently), set R=1. b) Perform two iterations of the exact grid method. What is this solution? Why might management have a problem with this solution? (Hint: For the second iteration: MBUS609 - Global Supply Chain Design \& Management after you complete the initial iteration, you can base the new distance calculation on the X and Y values you have found in your first iteration and use those values in the d. formulation.)
