Integer Programming My brother would like to open a truck dealership in Konya. While he is setting up his business, he needs to decide how to allocate his total available space of m and construction budget of TL among four departments: sales, service, spare parts, and showroom.
Every department will have a unit construction cost and unit profit per month per square meters allocated. Besides if he decides to include a department in his dealer, there is a minimum space requirement to be allocated and also fixed cost of construction. The related data is summarized below.
