Ah so were there two slack amounts?

Which two constraints did everyone get for the linear programming?

[student]

This is what I thought:

1) It didn’t give number of batches it gave number of units in each batch – so had to work out how many batches using that info.

2) I got x as very large, y as very small. Constraints were: the first and third labour things (build and test I think).

3) Transfer price – they told you how much C Co were selling externally and how many sales they were missing out on – I think you had to fully sell to external customers first and sell the remainder to Gears for marginal price.

4) Didn’t really know what to put for budget uncertainties

5) Got in a bit of a muddle as I only saw right at the end that it was sales mix “contribution” rather than sales mix.
