A manufacturer of clectronic circuits has a stock of 200 resistors, 120 transistors and 150 capacitors and is required to produce two types of circuits A and B. Type A requires 20 resistors, 10 transistors and 10 capacitors. Type B requires 10 resistors, 20 transistors and 30 capacitors. If the profit on type A circuit is 50 and that on type B circuit is 60, formulate this problem as a LPP do that the manufacturer can maximise his profit. How many of circuits of Type A and of type B, should be produced by the manufacturer so as to maximise his profit? Determine the maximum profit.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will formulate it as a Linear Programming Problem (LPP) and then find the optimal solution to maximize profit. ### Step 1: Define the Variables Let: - \( x \) = number of Type A circuits produced - \( y \) = number of Type B circuits produced ### Step 2: Formulate the Objective Function The profit from Type A circuits is 50 per unit and from Type B circuits is 60 per unit. Therefore, the objective function to maximize profit \( Z \) is: \[ Z = 50x + 60y \] ### Step 3: Formulate the Constraints We have the following constraints based on the availability of resistors, transistors, and capacitors: 1. **Resistors Constraint**: Each Type A circuit requires 20 resistors and each Type B circuit requires 10 resistors. The total available resistors are 200. Thus, the constraint is: \[ 20x + 10y \leq 200 \] Simplifying this gives: \[ 2x + y \leq 20 \quad \text{(Constraint 1)} \] 2. **Transistors Constraint**: Each Type A circuit requires 10 transistors and each Type B circuit requires 20 transistors. The total available transistors are 120. Thus, the constraint is: \[ 10x + 20y \leq 120 \] Simplifying this gives: \[ x + 2y \leq 12 \quad \text{(Constraint 2)} \] 3. **Capacitors Constraint**: Each Type A circuit requires 10 capacitors and each Type B circuit requires 30 capacitors. The total available capacitors are 150. Thus, the constraint is: \[ 10x + 30y \leq 150 \] Simplifying this gives: \[ x + 3y \leq 15 \quad \text{(Constraint 3)} \] ### Step 4: Non-negativity Constraints Since the number of circuits produced cannot be negative, we have: \[ x \geq 0, \quad y \geq 0 \] ### Step 5: Summary of the LPP Maximize: \[ Z = 50x + 60y \] Subject to: \[ \begin{align*} 2x + y & \leq 20 \quad \text{(Constraint 1)} \\ x + 2y & \leq 12 \quad \text{(Constraint 2)} \\ x + 3y & \leq 15 \quad \text{(Constraint 3)} \\ x & \geq 0 \\ y & \geq 0 \end{align*} \] ### Step 6: Finding the Corner Points To find the corner points of the feasible region, we will solve the equations formed by the constraints: 1. **Intersection of Constraint 1 and Constraint 2**: \[ 2x + y = 20 \quad (1) \] \[ x + 2y = 12 \quad (2) \] Solving these simultaneously gives \( (8, 4) \). 2. **Intersection of Constraint 2 and Constraint 3**: \[ x + 2y = 12 \quad (2) \] \[ x + 3y = 15 \quad (3) \] Solving these simultaneously gives \( (10.5, 1.5) \). 3. **Intersection of Constraint 1 and Constraint 3**: \[ 2x + y = 20 \quad (1) \] \[ x + 3y = 15 \quad (3) \] Solving these simultaneously gives \( (0, 20) \). 4. **Intercepts**: - For \( x = 0 \) in Constraint 1: \( y = 20 \) - For \( y = 0 \) in Constraint 1: \( x = 10 \) - For \( x = 0 \) in Constraint 2: \( y = 6 \) - For \( y = 0 \) in Constraint 2: \( x = 12 \) - For \( x = 0 \) in Constraint 3: \( y = 5 \) - For \( y = 0 \) in Constraint 3: \( x = 15 \) ### Step 7: Evaluate the Objective Function at Corner Points Now we will evaluate \( Z = 50x + 60y \) at the corner points: 1. \( (0, 20) \): \( Z = 50(0) + 60(20) = 1200 \) 2. \( (8, 4) \): \( Z = 50(8) + 60(4) = 400 + 240 = 640 \) 3. \( (10.5, 1.5) \): \( Z = 50(10.5) + 60(1.5) = 525 + 90 = 615 \) 4. \( (15, 0) \): \( Z = 50(15) + 60(0) = 750 \) ### Step 8: Determine the Maximum Profit The maximum profit occurs at the point \( (15, 0) \) with: \[ \text{Maximum Profit} = 750 \] ### Conclusion To maximize profit, the manufacturer should produce: - **15 circuits of Type A** and **0 circuits of Type B**. - The maximum profit will be **750**.
