Assignment 2: X X Z Maximize X X X X X

Par Inc. is considering manufacturing two golf bag models - a standard and deluxe model. The standard bag takes less time to produce and contributes $10 in profit per bag, while the deluxe takes more time but contributes $9 per bag. Par has limited production hours for cutting, sewing, finishing and inspection over the next 3 months. To maximize total profit, Par needs to determine how many of each bag model to produce within the time constraints.

Assignment 2

1. Par, Inc., is small manufacturer of golf equipment and supplies. Par has been convinced by its
distributor that there is an existing market for both a medium-priced golf bag, referred to as a
standard model, and a high-priced golf bag, referred to as a deluxe model. The distributor is so
confident of the market that, if Par can make the bags at a competitive price, the distributor has
agreed to purchase all the bags that Par can manufacture over the next three month. A careful
analysis of the manufacturing requirements resulted in the following table, which shows the
production time requirements for the four required manufacturing operations and the accounting
department’s estimate of the profit contribution per bag.

Production Time (hours)


Cutting Inspection Profit per bag
Product
and Sewing Finishing and ($)
Dyeing Packaging
Standard 7/10 1/2 1 1/10 10
Deluxe 1 5/6 2/3 1/4 9

The director of manufacturing estimates that 630 hours of cutting and dyeing time, 600 hours of
sewing time, 708 hours of finishing time, and 135 hours of inspection and packaging time will be
available for the production of golf bag during the next 3 month. If the company wants to
maximize total profit contribution, how many bags of each model should it manufacture?
