Question b and c Question 5A farmer, planning spring planting has decided to plant up a total of 120 acres of corn and soybeans.An estimate of the investment required and the expected return per acre for each are given in the tablebelow.CropInvestmentReturnCorn$20$50Soybeans$35$80Because corn is needed for feed purposes on the farm, the farmer needs at least 38 acres of corn, andthe budget can cover at most $3000 for both corn and soybeans. Let x represent number of acres tobe planted in soybeans and y as the number of acres of corn.a) Based on the information above, write out 3 inequalities, other than x > 0, which best representthe constraints given.b) Using the graph paper, graph the constraints, label them accordingly and clearly mark the feasibleregion or the region of interest.c) Based on the information given in the table above, write out the objective function and using thecorner point method, determine how many acres of each crop needs to be planted to maximisethe return (profit).

14.1. Care Alliance (CA), a manufacturer of emergency care kits for disaster relief, has received the annual disaster readiness plans from its major constituents and now must develop an operations plan to set production, labor, and inventory levels of its basic emergency products for the next four quarters. Demand for the kits, given below, varies with seasonal weather, political climate, and economic conditions. The average worker at CA can produce 10,000 kits a quarter at a cost of $9 per kit. The cost of holding inventory is $2 per kit per quarter. Due to the medical nature of many of its products and concern for quality, hiring and firing costs are $700 per worker. CA currently employs 20 workers. Given the demand forecast below, develop a quarterly operations production plan for CA using (a) chase demand and (b) level production: Quarter Demand 1 150,000 2 250,000 3 350,000 4 250,00

Hardware departm 8. Decision Tree A wine maker must decide whether to harvest grapes now or in four weeks. Harvesting now will yield 100,000 bottles of wine, netting P 2 per bottle. If the wine maker waits for four weeks and weather turns cold (probability: 20%), the yield will be cut in half but net P 3 per bottle. If the weather does not turn cold, the yield depends on rain. With rain (probability: 50%), a full yield netting P 4 per bottle will result. Without rain, there will still be a full 100,000-bottle yield, but the net amount will be P 3 per bottle only.

QUESTION 3 The demand for SMART TVs at Makro adheres to the following probability distribution: Lead Demand per day 1 0.10 0.25 1 2 3 2 3 4 4 Time 4 Probability 0.3 0.2 0.1 0.05 0.60 0.25 0.1 0.05 In order to meet the demands, the store orders 12 TVs whenever the stock level is at 3 units. Management is trying to maintain low inventory levels. The holding cost is R75/unit/day; the ordering cost is R200 per order. The lost sale cost is R100/unit/day and currently, there are 4 units in stock. 1. Simulate a 12-day inventory management scenario, assuming that there is an outstanding order of 6 units that will arrive on day one. NB: show all the steps! 2. Make a brief analysis of the simulation results. 3. What is the daily inventory management cost?
