Problem 22S-17 (Algo)
The M-N plant manufactures two different products: M and N. Selling prices and weekly market demands are shown in the following
diagram. Each product uses raw materials with costs as shown. The plant has three different machines: A, B, and C. Each performs
different tasks and can work on only one unit of material at a time.
Resources: A, B, C (one each)
Availability: 3,000 min./week
Operating expense: $12,000/week
Product M
$190/unit
110 units/week
15 min./unit
A
20 min./unit
RM-1
$60/unit
Product N
$200/unit
50 units/week
с
15 min./unit
B
15 min./unit
RM-2
$40/unit
B
15 min./unit
/RM-3
$40/unit
Process times for each task are shown in the diagram. Each machine is available 3,000 minutes per week. There are no "Murphys"
(major opportunities for the system to foul up). Setup and transfer times are zero. Demand is constant.
Operating expenses (including labor) total a constant $12,000 per week. Raw materials are not included in weekly operating expenses.
