CoolCo's arch competitor KoolKo has the following problem. KoolKo is planning ofr the next NT time periods. KoolKo's demand in time period t is for de air conditioners (for t= 1,2,...,NT). Koolko has a set of locations L that can produce air conditioners. The number of hours it takes to produce an air conditioner at location i E L is hi, and this costs an amount c₁. Labor contracts and available employees limit the total man-hours available each month at a site to m; Vi E L. Like its competitor CoolCo, KoolKo can make air conditioners ahead of time in order to meet high peak demands during the summer months. However, holding an air conditioner in inventory for one month costs an amount 3. At the beginning of the planning cycle, KoolKo has K air conditioners in stock. Problem Using the standard mathematical notation we discussed in class, write a general linear program that will help KoolKo meet its demand for air conditioners in each period at a minimum cost.
