Rs. 1000 and the holding cost of 1 unit per month is 50 paise. Shortage cost of
one unit is Rs. 30 per month. Determine the optimum manufacturing quantity
and the total inventory cost per year. Find the number of shortages. Also
determine the manufacturing time and time between set ups.
PART C
Answer any four full questions, each carries 10 marks.
Define with example the maximax criterion, the minimax criterion and the
Laplace criterion used in decision making under uncertainty.
Given below is a regret table:
Events
Suppose that the probabilities of the events in the table are P(E,) = 0.30;
P(E.) = 0.45 and P(E;) = 0.25. Calculate expected loss of each action and
interpret.
