Solver Help I think
Allan,
I have prepared a working example for you. Although it is basic it covers your needs and it will provide a useful starter for you. Can you provide your email address and I will send it along later today. Regards Tony -----Original Message----- Hi I have a list of 10 plants. Each plant has a different incremental cost of production. In B1:B10 I have a production rate, in C1:C10 I have the production cost per unit (vlookup based on value in Col B) in D1:10 is the production cost per plant. B11 is the Total production rate and D11 is the total production cost. If I need to increase production, how can I detemine the most economical production rate for each plant while also keeping the total production cost at a minimum. Can this process be automated and assigned a button to calculate production rates Thanks! Allan . |
