Side Increase Decrease 11 1822 12 1E+30 What is the increase in the objective value if 2 units of extrusion are added? 48 96

Explanation / Answer

Allowable increase in the extrusion used constraint is 6 and shadow price is 3.

Thus, if additional unit of extrusion is made available the objective function value will increase by $3. But the solution will be optimal allowable increase value.

Since the extrusion unit is increased by 2 units which is within allowable increase, the objective function value will increase by 2 units x $3= $6

Ans: $6
