fourth-year engineering student is seeking part-time jobs to get work experience financial income. The student can set aside 300 hours for the planning period in which she wants to work. As a consequence of the interviews, the student received four employment offers. These works are composed of multiple tasks. She can choose to work for any number of tasks of one or more works. In the table below, required time the student should spend on each of these tasks, the number of tasks she may do for each of these works, and the earnings she will get if she accomplishes each task once are given. Work Type # of tasks Required time per task (hrs) Fee per Task ( Dollarx 100) A 100 20 B 50 10 30 7 D 3 20 3 a. The student wants to find out which work(s) to select and number tasks she will do in order to earn the most amount of money. Formulate a dynamic programming recursion that maximizes the student's total earnings from their work selection decisions (Define State, Stage, Decision, Recursion formula, and Solution procedure). And solve the model manually. 224

Solved in 3 steps
- The Tinkan Company produces one-pound cans for the Canadian salmon industry. Each year the salmon spawn during a 24-hour period and must be canned immediately. Tinkan has the following agreement with the salmon industry. The company can deliver as many cans as it chooses. Then the salmon are caught. For each can by which Tinkan falls short of the salmon industrys needs, the company pays the industry a 2 penalty. Cans cost Tinkan 1 to produce and are sold by Tinkan for 2 per can. If any cans are left over, they are returned to Tinkan and the company reimburses the industry 2 for each extra can. These extra cans are put in storage for next year. Each year a can is held in storage, a carrying cost equal to 20% of the cans production cost is incurred. It is well known that the number of salmon harvested during a year is strongly related to the number of salmon harvested the previous year. In fact, using past data, Tinkan estimates that the harvest size in year t, Ht (measured in the number of cans required), is related to the harvest size in the previous year, Ht1, by the equation Ht = Ht1et where et is normally distributed with mean 1.02 and standard deviation 0.10. Tinkan plans to use the following production strategy. For some value of x, it produces enough cans at the beginning of year t to bring its inventory up to x+Ht, where Ht is the predicted harvest size in year t. Then it delivers these cans to the salmon industry. For example, if it uses x = 100,000, the predicted harvest size is 500,000 cans, and 80,000 cans are already in inventory, then Tinkan produces and delivers 520,000 cans. Given that the harvest size for the previous year was 550,000 cans, use simulation to help Tinkan develop a production strategy that maximizes its expected profit over the next 20 years. Assume that the company begins year 1 with an initial inventory of 300,000 cans.Job Costing Johnson Inc. is a job-order manufacturing company that uses a predetermined overhead ratebased on direct labor hours to apply overhead to individual jobs.

A header is partof the circulatory system of a commercial air conditioner that moves coolant between various components suchas the evaporator coil and the condenser coil. Currently, the header production cell is scheduled separately fromthe main work in the plant. Often, individual headers are not sequenced to match the product they go into on thefinal assembly line in a timely fashion, and so the product can sit in queue waiting for a header
- William Beebe owns a small shoe store. He has 10 pairs of shoes that requireresoling and polishing. He has a machine that can resole one pair of shoes at atime, and the time required for the operation varies with the type and condition of theshoe and the type of sole that is used. Shoes are polished on a machine dedi-cated tothis purpose as well, and polishing is always done after resoling. His assistant generally does the polishing while Mr. Beebe does the resoling.

Her company supplies services to a Fortune 500 company, Megacorp, through a regular contract. She estimates the costs of completing assignments for this company and tracks the costs of completing the various jobs. She finds that her estimates are generally on target-sometimes she is a bit high; sometimes a bit low. On average her estimated costs of completing work for her client match the actual costs. Megacorp reduces the number of assignments made to Jane's company and Jane decides to bid for new assignments with other clients. Jane wins bids to provide IT consulting services to three new clients and finds that her estimated costs of completing the jobs are well below that actual costs of completing the jobs. Please use auction concepts to explain this outcome. Briefly explain.

Under what conditions would a process costing system be more appropriate than a job order costing system? Explain.4. The Spencer Optics Company produces an inexpensive line of sunglasses. The manufacturing process consists of assembling two plastic lenses (produced by the firm's plastic molding depart- ment) into a finished frame (purchased from an outside supplier). The company is interested in using material requirements planning to schedule its operations and has asked you to prepare an example to illustrate the technique. The firm's sales manager has prepared a 10-week sales forecast for one of the more popular sunglasses (the Classic model) for your example. The forecast is 100 units per week. Spencer has customer orders of 110 units, 80 units, 50 units, and 20 units in weeks 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. The sunglasses are assembled in batches of 300 units. Presently, three such batches are sched- uled: one in week 2, one in week 5, and one in week 8.

These projects and their processing times (time taken to complete a project once started, in days) are described in the table below. In addition, each project has a due-date that has been set by your internal marketing team so that the customers will be delighted with your service if you complete the project by the due-date. However, your team has only enough resources to pursue exactly one project at any given time. Once started, a project is worked through its completion and is not interrupted. As a result of the sequence in which you choose to handle projects, each project will either be on time, or late if it is completed past the due date. If a project is late, the amount of time by which it misses its due-date is called its tardiness. The objective is to pick the sequence in which to complete the projects so as to minimize the total tardiness in the schedule. What is the minimum total tardiness…Mario, a security guard, has drawn a shift of 6:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. from Teusday to Sunday getting a daily pay of P80 a day.
