Document Summary
Kelson makes different kinds of sporting goods. Among other things it makes, it produces 2 different types of baseball gloves: a regular glove and a catcher"s mitt. The firm has 1800 hours of production time available in its cutting and sewing department, 1200 hours available in its packaging and shipping department. The maximum number of regular gloves they produce should not exceed. In order to ensure that the resources used in making gloves are profitable, Kelson decides to make at least 300 gloves in total (catcher"s mitts and regular gloves put together). Also, they decide that they want to stock at least 200 more regular gloves than catcher"s mitts. The production time requirements and the profit contribution for each product are shown below. Decision variables: r- number of regular gloves, c- number of catcher"s mitts. Objective function: max z = 5r + 12c.
