Answer #1

Using excel solver,we find the optimal solution as :

In excel ,

Objective function=Max Audience/Reach=H8=SUMPRODUCT(B3:D3,B5:D5)

Constraints :

B9=SUMPRODUCT(B3:D3,B6:D6) [budget constraint)

B10=SUMPRODUCT(B3:D3,B5:D5) [ customers reached ]

B11=B3 [ Number of television ad's]

When we try to solve this problem,the solver does not provide a feasible solution as shown in the excel snapshot because constraints 2 and 3 are not satisfied.

H8 fac =SUMPRODUCT(B3:D3,85:05) C D A B 1 2 Televisior Radio Newspaper 3 Number of messages 0 100 4 5 Audience 100 500 200 6
