    The document describes two product mix problems. The first problem involves determining the optimal production mix of two types of printers, LQP and DMP, given constraints on available resources including labour hours, clean room hours, and testing room hours. The second problem involves determining the optimal blend of seven different alloy mixtures to produce an alloy with specified compositions of 35% lead, 30% zinc, and 35% tin, while minimizing costs.

    PROBLEM SET 1

    OR FORMULATION PROBLEMS

    I. PRODUCT MIX PROBLEMS

    Consider the monthly production of two types of printers:

    LQ Printers (LQP)
    DM Printers (DMP) –

    All printers produced can be sold but the resources are limited. The profit from each is:

    Rs. 1000 per unit of LQP


    Rs. 500 per unit of DMP
    Resource requirements and availability are as follows:

    Resource LQP DMP AVAILABILITY


    LABOUR (HRS) 1 1 10,000
    CLEAN ROOM (HRS) 1 2 16,000
    TESTING ROOM (HRS) 3 1 24,000

    What should the product mix be?

    II. BLENDING TYPE PROBLEMS

    An alloy is made of lead, zinc and tin. The required composition is 35% lead, 30% zinc and 35%
    tin. This alloy is made by mixing alloys having different lead, zinc and tin compositions. The
    alloys available in the market, their compositions and their cost per kg. are as given below:

    ALLOY I II III IV V VI VII

    %OF .

    Assume that there are


    LEAD 30 40 20 35 40 25 30 no blending losses.
    Find the optimal blend.
    ZINC 30 20 30 30 35 45 35

    TIN 40 40 50 35 25 30 35

    COST/KG 38 43 35 48 40 45 48
