Here is а fun оne thаt shоuld be wоrkаble but challenging. Create the program and upload you file below. (I suggest no more than 40 minute for your first attempt, than move on and return to it later if time permits) The Dayton Electronic Manufacturing, Inc (DEMI) company manufactures two styles of remote keyless entry systems (the X30 and the X40) that various auto dealers supply to customers when a new (or used) automobile is purchased. DEMI currently operates four production facilities located in Springfield OH, Hartford, New Orleans, and Orlando. The manufactured items are shipped from the plants to regional distribution centers located in Trenton, Chicago and Seattle. It is from these regional locations that the product is distributed nationwide. As more automobile manufactures include keyless entry as a standard option, and DEMI finds itself locked out of the manufacturer market, demand for DEMI's products have decreased. As a result, management is contemplating closing one or more of its production facilities. Distribution facilities are not currently being considered for closing. Each production facility carries a fixed operating cost and a variable cost associated with building each of the products. Data has been compiled on production costs, resource availability, and resource usage at each of the production plants. That information is summarized in the table below. Plant Fixed Cost per Month Production Cost (Per 100) X30 Production Cost (Per 100) X40 Production time (hr/100) X30 Production time (hr/100) X40 Available hr Per Month Springfield 53,000 1100 1300 6 6 720 Harford 38,000 1100 1250 7 8 780 New Orleans 25,000 1000 1000 5 5 530 Orlando 28,000 1200 1500 5 9 680 The entry systems are sold nation wide at thes ame prices: $24 for the X30 and $30 for the X40. Current monthly demand projections at each distribution center for both products are given in the following table. Demand Trenton Chicago Seattle X30 2200 3100 4000 X40 4500 5800 6000 The transportation costs between each plant and each distribution center, which are the same for either product, are shown in the following table: Transport Cost per 100 Trenton Chicago Seattle Springfield 200 270 450 Harford 100 200 700 New Orleans 250 240 300 Orlando 180 220 350 Determine which of the plants to close and which to keep Determine the number of X30 and X40 to be produced at each Determine a shipping pattern from the plants to the distribution Maximize the net total monthly profits. Do not exceed the production capacities at any plant. Formulate DEMI's problem as a fixed charge, linear/integer program (MIP). Implement your model in Excel and solve the model to answer DEMI's questions.
