Goods Products co.
 The R&D division of the goods products company has
developed three possible new products. However, to
avoid undue diversification of the co.’s product line,
management has imposed the following restrictions.
 Restriction-1. From 3 possible new products at most 2
should be chosen to be produced.
 Restriction-2. Just one of the two plants should be
chosen to be the sole producer of the new products.
 The production cost per unit of the each product would
be the essentially the same in two plants.

$1500 after a year. Each bond costs $8000 and
will earn $1000 if sold at the end of the year.
There are 4 houses , 15 acres of land and 20
bonds are available for purchase.

A corporation is developing its marketing plan for
next years new products. For 3 of these
products the decision has been made to
purchase a total of 5 TV spots for commercials
on National TV network. How to allocate 5 spots

each product. Table shows the estimated impact
of allocating 0,1,2 and 3 spots to each product.
This impact is measured in terms of profit (in
units of million dollars) from additional sales that
would result from the spots , considering also
the cost of producing the commercial and
purchasing the spots.

Credit Card Example
• A Bank receives credit card payments from 4 regions of the
country. The average daily amounts of payments mailed
from each region are as follows : West Rs 70,000 , North
Rs 50,000 , East Rs 60000, and South Rs 40000. The bank
must decide where their customers mail their payments. An
annual interest of 20% can be earned on cash received.
The Bank is considering of setting of payment centers in 4
cities (Mumbai , Delhi , Kolkata and Chennai). The average
number of days that elapse between the time a check is
mailed and it is credited to the account is given in the
table. The annual cost of running a lockbox is Rs 50,000.
Each region must send all its money to a single city.
Citibank wants to determine the lockbox configuration that
minimizes the sum of loss interest and lockbox costs.

Manufacturing at –Durian Auto
 Dorian auto is considering manufacturing 3
types of cars compact midsized and large.
The resources required and the profits
yielded by each type of car are shown in the
table. At present 6000 tons of steel and
60000 hrs of labor available. If any cars of a
given type are produced , production of that
type of car will be economically feasible only
if 1000 cars of that type are produced.
Dorian wants a production schedule that
maximizes its profit.
