Larry Powell is the general manager of the American Appliances. Larry has received information from Gold Star Corporation about special dealer pricing on selected models of Gold Star refrigerators, stoves, and microwave ovens. Refrigerator Model R100, which usually costs $935 wholesale, is $850. The Gourmet Model S200 stove, which usually costs $450 wholesale, is $420. And the popular Model M300 microwave, which usually costs $220 wholesale, is $195.

It seems like a great opportunity to stock up on some fast-moving merchandise in order to increase profit! Larry asks his sales manager about the retail prices of each item: Model R100 refrigerator has a retail price of $1,250 and there are 6 existing customer orders. Model S200 has a retail price of $595 and there are 14 existing customer orders. Finally, Model M300 microwave oven has a retail price of $250 and there are 19 customer orders.

After talking to the warehouse manager, Larry realizes that the entire order must fit in 1,300 cubic feet of storage space. From his inventory, Larry learns that each of these apartment-sized refrigerators requires 25 cubic feet of storage space. Each stove requires 18 cubic feet of storage space and each microwave oven requires only 3 cubic feet of storage space.

Given a total budget of $50,000 for the order, how many refrigerators, stoves, and microwave ovens should be ordered?

IMPORTANT HINT: You must set one of your constraints as an integer.

The U.S. Senate passed S. 1023, the “Travel Promotion Act of 2009” (TPA) in September, 2009. TPA calls for the establishment of the Corporation for Travel Promotion as an independent nonprofit corporation to promote leisure, business and scholarly visits to the U.S. In October, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Travel Promotion Act (H.R. 1035), sending this bill back to the Senate for one last vote. The U.S. Senate finally passed this Bill (78 to 10) on February 25, 2010 and President Obama signed the Travel Promotion Act of 2009 into law on March 4, 2010.

The promotion is funded through a matching program featuring up to $100 million in private sector contributions and a $10 fee on foreign travelers who do not pay $131 for a visa to enter the United States. The fee will be collected once every two years in conjunction with the Department of Homeland Security’s Electronic System for Travel Authorization. No money is provided by U.S. taxpayers.&nbsp.It is estimated that international promotion will generate 1.6 million addition international visitors to the U.S. and create $1.6 billion in visitor spending annually.
