A company manufactures 30 units per day. The sale of these items depends upon demand which has the following distribution:
The production cost and sale price of each units are Rs 40 and Rs 50 respectively. Any unsold product is to be disposed off at a loss following Monte Carlo simulation technique, estimate the total profit/loss for the company for the next ten day. If the company decides to produce 29 units per day, what is the advantages or disadvantages to the company?

Hamara Udyog produces large industrial equipment. The firm has received the following orders for its equipments-
The cost of production involves a set-up cost of Rs.50 thousand and an average variable cost of Rs.30 thousand per unit. Inventory holding cost is Rs.5 thousand per unit per month. Due to restriction of storage space not more than 5 units can held in inventory. Assume that the firm has no inventory at the beginning of September and does no wish to have any inventory at the end of December. What production schedule should be followed to minimize the cost?
