The inputs for the model are same here as before: (1) the hourly labor costs for assembling and testing, (2) the required labor hours for assembling and testing any computer model, (3) the cost of component parts for each model, (4) the selling prices for each model, (5) the maximum sales for each model, and (6) labor availabilities. These input values are listed in the file HW_09. xlsx. Similarly, the company needs to determine the product mix that maximizes its total net profit.
Pleaseuse LP to find the mix of computer models that maximizes total net profit and stays within the labor hour availability and maximum sales constraints.conduct the sensitivity analysis test for the model and choose two values from the Variable Cells and Constraints respectively to interpret.
Cost per labor hour assembling $11
Cost per labor hour testing, line 1 $19
Cost per labor hour testing, line 2 $17
Cost per labor hour testing, line 3 $14
