Practice Problem 3-1 (Solution)

The document describes the process of solving a linear programming problem using the simplex method. It shows the calculations for four iterations to arrive at the optimal solution of producing 40 units of Crown Auto Lamps and 60 units of Corona Car Lamps for a maximum profit of Rs. 42,000. Any remaining lampshades can be sold as unused inventory.

Entering row = that variable having the highest Cj - Zj Value

Replaced row = divide the quantity column by their corresponding


and choose the one with the smallest positive quotient.
S1 = 320/2 =160 S2 = 180/3 =60

Remaining rows Replacing row (X1): Divide each and every element of the replaced
S1 Row S2 Row 100/2=50, 2/2=1, 0/2=0,
320 - 2(50) =220 180 - 3(50) = 30
2 - 2(1) = 0 3 -3(1) = 0 Second Solution
4 -2(0) = 4 1 - 3(0) = 1 Cj 600 300
1 - 2(0) = 1 0 - 3(0) = 0 PM Qty X1 X2

Replacing row(X2): Same values: IE = 1
Remaining Rows

220 - 4(30) = 100 Same values : IE = 0 Third Solution

Replacing Row (S3)

Remaining Rows Fourth solution


X2 Row X1 Row Cj 600 300
30 - (-1.5)(20)=60 50 - (0.5)(20) = 40 PM Qty X1 X2
0 - (-1.5)(0) = 0 1 - (0.5)(0) = 1 0 S3 20 0 0

1 - (-1.5)(-4/5) = -1/5 0 - (0.5)(-4/5) = 2/5 Zj 42000 600 300
-1.5-(-1.5)*(5/5)=0 0.5 - (0.5)(5/5) = 0 Cj -Zj 0 0

Optimum solution
Produce and sell:
Crown Auto lamp (X1) = 40 units
