Let’s talk about two real-life problems before I am helping you out to solve these types of problems using Excel Solver.
Mathematical Problem:
4x+ y– 2z= 0
2x– 3y+ 3z= 9
–6x– 2y+ z= 0; Find out the values of x, y, and z.
In your school life, you solved a problem like the above one, right?
Business Problem:
Now you are matured. You do business or you work for a business; if you are not a full-time blogger like me, though blogging is also like running a small business. Say your company is SOFTEKO and you guys produce three products: Product A, Product B, and Product C. Your company’s profit profile are like below table:
Product | Units/Day |
Profit/Unit | Profit/Day |
Product A | 25 | $13 | $325 |
Product B | 25 | $18 | $450 |
Product C | 25 | $22 | $550 |
Total | 75 | $1325 |
From the above table, it is clear that to maximize the profit you should produce only Product C as it generates the highest per-unit profit. But let’s add some more conditions for producing those products.
- The production capacity of your company is 500 units per day.
- Your company has to produce 100 units of Product A as your company has that amount of order.
- Your company has to produce 80 units of Product B.
- And the sales of Product C are not so high, so your company is not interested to produce more than 50 units of Product C per day.
Now your head is jammed, right? You don’t know how much you will produce Product A and Product B when the production of Product C is fixed to less than or equal to 50.
In the above two cases, you can use the Excel Solver add-in.
