A coffee shop has two warehouses to deliver coffee beans across the US. One
warehouse is in Seattle (SE) and the other one is in New York (NY). Both warehouses
have a roasting capacity of 1500 lb of coffee beans each every day. Three major
customers, one in DC, one in Dallas (DA) and one in Los Angeles (LA), regularly order
coffee beans online. The customer in DC orders 1000lb, the one in DA orders 1500lb,
and the one in LA orders 500lb of coffee beans every day. The following network shows
the costs and capacities on each route that can be used to deliver these orders.
The numbers on the edges shown in black are the distances [in mi] between each node
(i.e., costs) and the numbers in red are the capacities [in lb].
a)[15pt] Formulate a linear programming problem to find the delivery strategy
with minimum cost over this network. Report the cost and capacity matrices and
the flow constraints on each node.
b)[15pt] Solve the linear programming problem defined in part a) using Excel's
solver. Report the final objective value and the delivery amounts on the network
at the optimum.
