The company can purchase long coils of sheet metal in two different widths: 65 inches and 40 inches. The company must purchase the coils by linear foot of length: $1.20 per foot for a 64-inch coil and $1.00 per foot for a 40-inch coil. (This implies that a square foot, say, of the wider coil is less expensive.) Up to 4000 feet of the 65-inch coil is available, and up to 6000 feet of the 40-inch coil is available. There are manufacturing requirements for six different widths: 50, 45, 40, 35, 20, and 10 inches. Mayfree’s requirements are expressed as lengths of the various widths.

Every acre planted with watermelons requires 50 gallons of water per day and must be prepared for planting with 20 pounds of fertilizer. Every acre planted with cantaloupes requires 75 gallons of water per day and must be prepared for planting with 15 pounds of fertilizer. The farmer estimates that it will take 2 hours of labor to harvest each acre planted with watermelons and 2.5 hours to harvest each acre planted with cantaloupes. He believes that watermelons will sell for about $3 each, and cantaloupes will sell for about $1 each. Every acre planted with watermelons is expected to yield 90 salable units. Every acre planted with cantaloupes is expected to yield 300 salable units. The farmer can pump about 6,000 gallons of water per day for irrigation purposes from a shallow well. He can buy as much fertilizer as he needs at a cost of $10 per 50-pound bag. Finally, the farmer can hire laborers to…arrow_forward
- A farmer is planning to raise wheat and barley. Each acre of wheat yields a profit of $50, and each acre of barley yields a profit of $70. To sow the crop, two machines, a tractor and a tiller are rented. The tractor is available for 150 hours, and the tiller is available for 200 hours. Sowing an acre of wheat requires 4 hours of tractor time and 1 hour of tilling. Sowing an acre of barley requires 3 hours of tractor time and 2 hours of tilling.

Many biochemical materials are usually necessary to produce a small amount of APIs. To produce 1kg of API T, one must use 5kg and 10kg of biochemical materials W and P, respectively. To produce 1kg of API C, one must use 4 kg and 5 kg of biochemical materials W and P, respectively. It costs $100 and $60 to produce 1kg API T and C, respectively. The pharma company can spend $600 at most to produce the APIs. Taking into account yield uncertainties of the APIs, the pharma company has two goals as follows. Goal 1: The total amount of biochemical material W should be 35kg or more (i.e., approximately 35kg, ideally more than 35kg. In the worst case, the amount is less than 35kg.) Goal 2: The total amount of biochemical material P should be 60kg or less (i.e., approximately 60kg, ideally less than 60kg. In the worst case, the amount is more than 60kg.)
