Consider a resource allocation problem having the following data:

	Resource Usage Per Unit of Each Activity
Resource	1	2	Amount of Resource Available
1	1	2	10
2	1	3	12
Unit Profit	$2	$5

The objective is to determine the number of units of each activity to undertake so as to maximize the total profit.

While doing what-if analysis, you learn that the estimates of the unit profits are accurate only to within 50 percent. In other words, the ranges of likely values for these unit profits are $1 to $3 for activity 1 and $2.50 to $7.50 for activity 2.

Use a parameter analysis report in Analytic Solver to systematically generate the optimal solution, product mix, and total profit as the unit profit of activity 1 increases in 20 cent increments from $1 to $3 (without changing the unit profit of activity 2). Then do the same as the unit profit of activity 2 increases in 50 cent increments from $2.50 to $7.50 (without changing the unit profit of activity l). Use these results, not the sensitivity report, to estimate the allowable range for the unit profit of each activity.

Activity 1 unit profit allowable range (i.e., the decision variables do not change):

Activity 2 unit profit allowable range (i.e., the decision variables do not change):
