Need statistics help with a Linear Programming Case

Question description

Susan Wong Case Study Fall 2105.docx Susan Wong Template Fall 2015.xlsx (Problem and Template are in links above!!!! )The problem has at least three (3) constraints and at least two (2) decision variables. The problem will be bounded and feasible. It will also have a single optimum solution (in other words, it won’t have alternate optimal solutions). The problem will also include a component that involves sensitivity analysis and the use of the shadow price.You will be turning in two (2) deliverables, a short writeup of the project and the spreadsheet showing your work.Writeup.Your writeup should introduce your solution to the project by describing the problem. Correctly identify what type of problem this is. For example, you should note if the problem is a maximization or minimization problem, as well as identify the resources that constrain the solution. Identify each variable and explain the criteria involved in setting up the model. This should be encapsulated in one (1) or two (2) succinct paragraphs.After the introductory paragraph, write out the L.P. model for the problem. Include the objective function and all constraints, including any non-negativity constraints. Then, you should present the optimal solution, based on your work in Excel. Explain what the results mean.Finally, write a paragraph addressing the part of the problem pertaining to sensitivity analysis and shadow price.Excel.As previously noted, please set up your problem in Excel and find the solution using Solver. Clearly label the cells in your spreadsheet. You will turn in the entire spreadsheet, showing the setup of the model, and the results.Your work will be graded according to the following rubric. Points: 110Assignment 1: Linear Programming Case StudyCriteriaUnacceptableBelow 60% FMeets Minimum Expectations60-69% DFair70-79% CProficient80-89% BExemplary90-100% AExplain what type of problem this is and the approach you are taking (20%)Did not explain what type of problem this is and the approach taken, or did so insufficiently.Insufficiently explained what type of problem this is and the approach takenPartially explained what type of problem this is and the approach takenSatisfactorily explained what type of problem this is and the approach takenThoroughly explained what type of problem this is and the approach takenObjective function specified correctly in writeup (10%)Objective function is specified incorrectly, with both coefficients incorrect or missing. Objective function is specified, but one (1) coefficient is incorrect.Coefficients for objective function are correct, but whether this is a max or min problem is incorrect.Objective function is specified correctly.Constraints are specified correctly in writeup (10%)Constraints are specified incorrectly or missing.Some constraints are correctly specified.Most constraints are correctly specified. All constraints are correctly specified, buy applicable nonnegativity constraints are omitted. All constraints are correctly specified, including nonnegativity constraints, if applicable.Specified L.P.
