In this assignment, we revisit the WUWU Problem, which was previously discussed in this week's Lesson 2(specifically in Video 3). If you have not done so already, please download the WUWU spreadsheet: it is available for Excel and for LibreOffice.
For the questions below, we will use as our starting point the WUWU 1 problem, which is found in the WUWU1 tab of the spreadsheet (not the WUWU2 tab). As it stands now, the objective function for WUWU1 problem has an optimal value of $6,525.00. Try solving for the problem in its current form: you should get the same value.
The questions below will ask you to modify the parameters of this model, and the model itself, to include new constraints and products.
Part 1
pontos 0.5/0.5(classificado)
For the first variation of the problem, we will change the capacity in both our DCs. Please increase the capacity of the Atlanta DC from 200 widgets to 300 widgets, and decrease the capacity of the Boston DC from 500 widgets to 400 widgets. Solve optimally.
What is the new minimum cost of the optimal solution?
