Valencia Products makes automobile radar detectors and assemblestwo models: LaserStop and SpeedBuster. Both models use the sameelectronic components. After reviewing the components required and theprofit for each model, the firm found the following linear optimization modelfor profit, where L is the number of LaserStop models produced and S isthe number of SpeedBuster models produced. Implement the linearoptimization model on a spreadsheet and use Solver to find an optimalsolution. Interpret the optimal solution, identify the binding constraints, andverify the values of the slack variables.Maximize Profit = 123 L+ 139 S18 L 11 S≤ 30005 L+9 S≤2500L≥ 0 and S≥ 0(Availability of component A)(Availability of component B)Implement the linear optimization model and find an optimal solution.

Lemingtons is trying to determine how many Jean Hudson dresses to order for the spring season. Demand for the dresses is assumed to follow a normal distribution with mean 400 and standard deviation 100. The contract between Jean Hudson and Lemingtons works as follows. At the beginning of the season, Lemingtons reserves x units of capacity. Lemingtons must take delivery for at least 0.8x dresses and can, if desired, take delivery on up to x dresses. Each dress sells for 160 and Hudson charges 50 per dress. If Lemingtons does not take delivery on all x dresses, it owes Hudson a 5 penalty for each unit of reserved capacity that is unused. For example, if Lemingtons orders 450 dresses and demand is for 400 dresses, Lemingtons will receive 400 dresses and owe Jean 400(50) + 50(5). How many units of capacity should Lemingtons reserve to maximize its expected profit?
If a monopolist produces q units, she can charge 400 4q dollars per unit. The variable cost is 60 per unit. a. How can the monopolist maximize her profit? b. If the monopolist must pay a sales tax of 5% of the selling price per unit, will she increase or decrease production (relative to the situation with no sales tax)? c. Continuing part b, use SolverTable to see how a change in the sales tax affects the optimal solution. Let the sales tax vary from 0% to 8% in increments of 0.5%.

1. Write a linear program for the problem. 2. What is the optimal production mix among different coffee varieties and the profit associated with it? 3. What should be the per bag profit of Tarrazu which will make it beneficial to produce this variety? 4. One Cup is considering increasing the weekly bags to 150. If it costs One Cup $3.00 per bag to procure beans of any variety. Conduct sensitivity analysis and determine if One Cup should consider increasing the per week production. 5. Identify the range over which per bag profit of Sumatra and Kona may vary and still retain the current production plan as optimal for One Cup. 6. Once roasted the coffee beans must be preserved properly. To ensure that, One Cup Coffee is considering investing in a vacuum packaging machine for 24 hours/ week. It takes 10, 15 and 10 minutes to pack a bag of Sumatra, Kona and Tarazzu respectively. Identify if the current production plan will suit the installation of the new packaging scheme.

Thomas has eight horses averaging 1,400 pounds. They are on 20 acres of orchard grass and clover. Each year, Thomas applied 30-30-30 units of fertilizer per acre using 46-0-0 urea at $408 per ton, 18-46-0 DAP at $496 per ton, and 0-0-60 muriate of potash at $506 per ton. He reseeded with 10 pounds per acre of orchard grass at $1.19 per pound and 2 pounds per acre of clover at $3.18 per pound. The horses are housed in a barn 34 feet wide with stalls 12 by 12 feet on each side and a 10-foot aisle down the center. He needs at least one fifth of the barn, not including the center, for hay and tack room. What did it cost to fertilize and reseed the pasture? How long must he barn be in even number of feet?
