How are inventory levels monitored in retail stores?
Kincaid Memorial Hospital uses 100 syringes of a particular style each day, 365 days per year. The distributor of this product offers the price schedule as in Table 2(c). The cost to hold an item in inventory for a year is estimated to be 30 percent of its cost, and the order cost for this item is estimated to be $15 per order. Determine the most economical quantity to buy each item this syringe is purchased. Assume the minimum inventory is zero.

Circumstances dictate that a processor of dairy foods determine for a given day what his output of two different products will be. The following are the existing constraints: X≥0 Y≥0 2X+8Y≥80 4X+2Y≥56 3X+3Y≥75X \ge 0 \ Y \ge 0 \ 2X + 8Y \ge 80 \ 4X + 2Y \ge 56 \ 3X + 3Y \ge 75X≥0 Y≥0 2X+8Y≥80 4X+2Y≥56 3X+3Y≥75 and the objective function, which is to be minimized, is as follows: $C=C =C=30X + 10Y10Y10Y$ (X, Y = hundreds of pounds to be processed)
