a machine having productions in hours of 160 in dayshift and 192 in nightshift. The time
required per unit of production is as follows:

Product Dayshift Nightshift

P 2.0 2.5

Q 3.0 4.0

R 1.0 1.5

The machine cost Rs.1 per hour. Selling Price of P, Q, R are Rs.8, Rs.12 and Rs.8.5
respectively. There is a sales commitment of 50 units of P. A maximum of 150 units of R can

Case 1: A company, engaged in producing tinned food, has 300 employees on the rolls, each
of whom can produce one can of food in a week. Due to the developing taste of the public for
this kind of food the company plans to add to the existing labor force by employees 150
people, in phased manner, over the next 5 week. The new comers would have to undergo a
two weeks training programme before being put to work. The training is to be given by the
employees from the existing ones and it is known that one employee can train three trainees.
Assume that there is no production from the trainers and the trainees during training period as
the training is off the job. However the trainees would be remunerated at the rate of Rs.300
per week, the same rate as for the trainers. The company the booked the following orders
during the next five weeks:
Week 1 2 3 4 5
No. of cans 280 298 305 360 400
Assume that the production in any week would not be more than the number of cans ordered,
so that every delivery of the food would be fresh. Formulate the LP Model.
