Chapter 4, Problem 26RP
Explanation of Solution
LP formulation:
- Suppose that,
- at= Number of robots available during quarter t.
- bt= Number of robots bought during quarter t.
- st= Number of robots sold during quarter t.
- it= Number of cars available during quarter t.
- ct= Number of cars produced during quarter t.
- z= Cost of the company.
- The cost of purchasing a robot is $5,000 and maintenance cost of a robot is $500
- The selling cost of a robot at the beginning of each quarter is $3,000.
- Holding cost of a car at the end of each quarter is $200.
- For the backlog demand, the holding cost of a car at the end of each quarter is $300.
- Therefore, it is necessary to minimize the cost of company
- z=
- z=
- The demand to be met for quarter 1 is 600. Therefore,
- The demand to be met for quarter 2 is 800. Therefore,
- The demand to be met for quarter 3 is 500

Katanga Stars is a team of women who perform cultural dance at various functions across the country. The team has a fixed membership of 9 members. Within these 9 members, there is a management committee of 4 members. For each function where they are hired to perform, the amount collected is different and is distributed as follows;• 50% of the fees goes to the consolidated account where each member owns equal shares.• The remaining 50% is shared among the 9 members such that each of the 4 management committee members gets 6.25% and each of the other members not on management committee gets 5%.For example, suppose Katanga Stars is paid UGX 1,000,000/= for a performance at a certain wedding ceremony, then, UGX 500,000/= goes to the consolidated account. Each management committee member gets UGX 62,5000/= while each of the other members gets UGX 50,000/=By assuming that Katanga Stars performs in exactly 5 places in a year, write a C program that performs the following tasks;• Uses a loop…
