Chapter 3, Problem 24RP

Explanation of Solution

 Formulation of a Linear Programming (LP) to determine the hospital optimal mix of DRGs:

 Let “i = 1” is diagnostic services, 2 is bed day service, 3 is nursing care use and 4 is drugs supplied.

 Let “xij” be the service “i” and “j” diagnostic-related groups (DRGs), for (i = 1, 2, 3, 4 and j = 1, 2, 3, 4).

 The objective is to find the optimal mix of DRGs.

 z=[(profit/week from DRG1)(services from DRG1)+(profit/week from DRG2)(services from DRG2)+(profit/week from DRG3)(services from DRG3)+(profit/week from DRG4)(services from DRG4)]

 =[2000(x11+x21+x31+x41)+1500(x12+x22+x32+x42)+500(x13+x23+x33+x43)+500(x14+x24+x34+x44)]

 Therefore, the objective function to maximize the profit is,

 Maximize, z=[2000(x11+x21+x31+x41)+1500(x12+x22+x32+x42)+500(x13+x23+x33+x43)+500(x14+x24+x34+x44)]

 Constraint 1:

 At most, 570 hours of diagnostic service are available.

 Constraint 2:

 At most, 1000 bed-days are available.

 Constraint 3:

 At most, 50000 hours of nursing are available.

 Constraint 4:

 At most, 50000 dollars of drugs are available

Katanga Stars is a team of women who perform cultural dance at various functions across the country. The team has a fixed membership of 9 members. Within these 9 members, there is a management committee of 4 members. For each function where they are hired to perform, the amount collected is different and is distributed as follows;• 50% of the fees goes to the consolidated account where each member owns equal shares.• The remaining 50% is shared among the 9 members such that each of the 4 management committee members gets 6.25% and each of the other members not on management committee gets 5%.For example, suppose Katanga Stars is paid UGX 1,000,000/= for a performance at a certain wedding ceremony, then, UGX 500,000/= goes to the consolidated account. Each management committee member gets UGX 62,5000/= while each of the other members gets UGX 50,000/=By assuming that Katanga Stars performs in exactly 5 places in a year, write a C program that performs the following tasks;• Uses a loop…
