j. Let’s assume that Student A and Student B are
working in the canning department. Given
that they were both hung over on a Monday
morning, and called in sick, would you be able
to continue to produce mixed fruit and fruit
cocktail? (Assume that they each are
scheduled to work 8 hours on Monday.) Why?

k. If Student A and Student B worked in the
mixing department and pulled this same
stunt, would the optimal solution still be to
produce mixed fruit, fruit cocktail, and
produce no fruit delight? Are you sure?
Why?

l. Assume Student A and Student B are being moved the
accounting department and are to interpret the sensitivity
report for this problem. After looking it over carefully, they
conclude that if we increase the profit on fruit cocktail to $7 per
lot our profit will increase by $16 ($1 * 16 lots = $16), and our
basis will surely remain unchanged because we are still within
the range of optimality. They go on to say that if they decrease
the profit on fruit cocktail to $5 per lot the total profit will
decrease by $16, and our basis will surely remain unchanged,
because we are still within the range of optimality. Are they
correct?
