Product-Mix Problem of BlubberMaid, Inc


BlubberMaid, Inc., manufactures three rubber-based products: Airtex (a spongy material),
Extendex (a stretchy material), and Resistex (a hard material). All three products require the
same three chemical polymers and base. The number of ounces of each ingredient used per
pound of final product is given in the following table.

Ingredient (oz/lb of product) Profit


Polymer A Polymer B Polymer C Base ($/lb)
Airtex 4 2 4 6 $7
Extendex 3 2 2 9 $7
Resistex 6 3 5 2 $6
Supply (lbs) 500 425 650 1100

For the coming week, BlubberMaid has a commitment to produce at least 1000 pounds of Airtex,
500 pounds of Extendex, and 400 pounds of Resistex, but the company management knows it
can sell more of each of the three products. Current inventories of the ingredients are 500 pounds
of Polymer A, 425 pounds of Polymer B, 650 pounds of Polymer C, and 1100 pounds of the
Base. Each pound of Airtex and Extendex nets the company a profit of $7, and each pound of
Resistex a profit of $6. As manager of the Production Department, you need to determine an
optimal production plan for this week.

Identify the decision variables, objective function, and constraints of this decision problem.
