CIMA P1 Question Answer

The simplex method has been used to determine the optimum output of products P, Q, R and S with constraints on resources J, K and L.

In the final simplex tableau, the figure in the product R row and the column for slack variable K is 80.

Which of the following statements is correct?

For each additional unit of resource K available, the contribution would increase by $80.

For each additional unit of resource K available, the output of product R would increase by 80 units.

For each additional unit of product R produced, 80 additional units of resource K would be required.

In the optimum solution, 80 units of resource K are unused.
