----------------------------------------Product W0075C 1400 units Product W0033C 250 units Product W0005X 1510 units Product W0007X 1116 units -----------------------------------------

Identified Problem: •

Booking orders > production using present capacity

Objective function and constraints: Objective Function: Maximum Profit We assume – To make the optimum profit by satisfying the limitations, total units of Product W0075C = X1 Product W0033C = X2 Product W0005X = X3 Product W0007X = X4 Assume that X1, X2, X3, X4 >=0 Constraints: • Meet key customers demand: Product W0075C >= 150 units Product W0007X >= 600 units • Hours Hours Hours Hours

Plant capacity: for Drawing
