Expert Answer
b) Minimize = 7.5*Va1 + 6.25*Va2 + 6.5*Va3
= 6.75*Vb1 + 7*Vb2 + 8*Vb3
c) Customer A’s demand = 650
Customer B’s demand = 800
Warehouse 1 supply = 400
Warehouse 2 supply = 500
Warehouse 3 supply = 600
d) 4 constraints are binding as final value in constraints table for 4 out of 5 constraints have value equal to RH side value which are C1, C2, C3 & C4
e) For Va3 range of optimality is Objective coefficient – Allowable decrease to Objective coefficient + Allowable increase. Hence, range is 6.5 – 0.25 to 6.5 + 0.75, which is 6.25 to 7.25
