A commercial truck dealership gets an allocation for 100


A commercial truck dealership gets an allocation for 100 trucks from the manufacturer. Model A can be sold at $4500 above factory invoice, Model B at $5200, Model C at $4500, Model D at $4000. The dealership sold plenty of trucks last year, and is now including the halo model, (Model Elite-t Limited) in that allocation. This new model can be marked up at $16500 above invoice.

  • At least 25% of the total order must be the fuel-efficient Model D
  • Model C is a gigantic Truck and it can't count no more than 5% of the total order
  • the dealer has to order at least one Model Elite-t Limited
  • The dealership will get one Model Elite-t Limited for every 19 Model D ordered
  • Since Model D and Model B share many common parts, the manufacturer produces plenty of them. So, they must account for 2/3 of the order.

The Mathematical Model I came up with is:

X1 - Model A

X2 - Model B

X3 - Model C

X4 - Model D

X5 - Model E

X6 - TOTAL

-------

X<= .25* X6

X<= .05* X6

X5 = 19* X4

X<= (X2 + X4)*(2/3)

X+ X2 + X+ X4 + X5 = X6
