A company is manufacturing two products A and B. the net profit for these products is Rs.60 and Rs.50 respectively. These products require working in two departments C and D. The available hours per month in these departments are 150 each. Product A requires 2 hours in department C and 3 hours in department D. Product B requires 3 hours in department C and 2 hours in department D. the production of the products A and B cannot exceed 40 units each because of marketability constraints. Formulate the LP. model and solve it by simplex method.

The Taj Service Station has five machines each of whom can service a scooter in 2 hours on the average. The scooters are registered at a single counter and then sent for servicing to different mechanics. Scooters arrive at the service station at an average rate of 2 scooters per hour. Assuming that the scooter arrivals are Poisson distributed and the servicing times
are distributed exponentially, determine:
a) Utilization factor
b) The probability that the system shall be idle
a) Utilization factor

A large computer installation contains 2000 components of identical nature which are subject to failure as per probability distribution that follows:
Components which fail have to be replaced for efficient functioning of the system. If they are replaced as and when failures occur. the cost of replacement per unit is Rs 3 Alternatively. If all components are replaced in one lot at periodic intervals and individually replace only such failures as occur between group replacements, the cost of component replaced is Re 1.
Assess which policy of replacement would be economical

The Paints ltd would like. to improve its inventory management policies for its supply of paints used for automobiles. Annual demand for such paint is 50,000 litres and the paint which costs Rs. 20 per litre. is used at a constant rate. Annual carrying cost are estimated at 15 percent of the value of paint held. Each order costs Rs.80. Determine:
(i) How much paint should be ordered each time?
(ii) How often should paint be ordered?
(iii) Time between two consecutive orders.
(iv) What is the total annual cost associated with this policy?
(i) How much paint should be ordered each time?

A bakery keeps stock of popular brand of bread. Previous experience indicates the daily demand as given below:
Consider the following sequence of random numbers:
48,78,19,51,77,15,14,68,9
Using above sequence. simulate the demand for next 10 days.
(i) Find out the stock situation if the ovner of the bakery decides to make 30 breads every day.
(ii) Estimate the daily average demand for the bread on the basis of simulated data.
