An electronic company is engaged in the production of two components C, and Cy
used in TV sets. Each unit of C, costs the company Rs. 25 in wages and Rs. 25 in
material, while each unit of C3 costs the company Rs. 125 in wages and Rs. 75 in
material. The company sells both products on one-period credit terms, but the company’s
labour and material expenses must be paid in cash. The selling price of C, is Rs. 150
per unit and of C> is Rs. 350 per unit, Because of the strong monopoly of the company
for these components, itis assumed that the company can sell at the prevailing prices
as many units as it produces. The company’s production capacity is, however, limited
by two considerations. First, at the beginning of period 1, the company has an initial
balance of Rs. 20,000 (cash plus bank credit plus collections from past credit sales).
Second, the company has available in each period 4,000 hours of machine time and
2,800-hours of assembly time. The production of each C, requires 6 hours of machine
time and 4 hours of assembly time, whereas the production of each C> requires 4 hours
of machine time and 6 hours of assembly time. Formulate this problem as a linear programming"
problem’so as to maximize the total profit to the company. 8
