David Co will manufacturers dining sets:
Product
Table
Chair
Sideboard
Direct Material (Wood panel)
32 sq ft/unit
6 sq ft/unit
44 sq ft/unit
Direct Labor
2.5 hours/unit
0.5 hours/unit
4 hours/unit
Gross Profit
$210/unit
$45/unit
$350/unit
There is a total of 800 direct labor hours available per week and 10,000 sq ft of Direct Material available per week. The company needs to produce a minimum of 20 large sets per week (each large set includes: 1 table, 8 chairs, and 2 sideboards) and 50 small sets (each small set includes: 1 table, 6 chairs, and 1 sideboard). The number of chairs produced has to be at least 6 per table and cannot exceed 8 per table. The number of sideboards has to be at least 1 per table and cannot exceed 2 per table. How many tables, chairs, and sideboards should the firm produce per week in order to maximize gross profit?
On a piece of paper, formulate the mathematical model (objective function and constraints).
How many variables did you find in this problem and what are their units?
Question 1 options:
3 variables: Tables (in $), Chairs (in $), Sideboards (in $)
3 variables: Tables (in units), Chairs (in units), Sideboards (in units)
2 variables: Direct Labor (in hours), Direct Materials (in Sq Ft)
7 variables: Tables (in $), Chairs (in $), Sideboards (in $), Direct Labor (in hours), Direct Materials (in Sq Ft), Large Sets (in units), Small Sets (in units)
Excluding the non-negative constraint, how many constraints did you find?

Which of the following constraints is INCORRECT?
Question 4 options:
T>=70
C+6T >= 0
C>=460
C-8T <= 0
Which of the following is the Objective Function?
Question 5 options:
Max 32T + 6C + 44S
Max 10,000*DM + 20*LS + 50*SS
Max 210T + 45C + 350S
Max 2.5T + 0.5C + 4S
Consider the following formulation:
Max 2x + 4y
S.T.:
6x + 2y <= 20
x>=1
x+y<=4
x, y >= 0
