Question

An assignment problem is solved to minimize the total processing time of four jobs (1, 2, 3 and 4) on four different machines such that each job is processed exactly by one machine and each machine processes exactly one job. The minimum total processing time is found to be 500 minutes. Due to a change in design, the processing time of Job 4 on each machine has increased by 20 minutes. The revised minimum total processing time will be _____________ minutes (in integer).

Show Answer

Answer :

Correct answer is : 520

The minimum processing time for an assignment problem is given 500 minutes. Due to change in design, the time of one job increases by 20 minutes, then the total minimum time would also increased by 20 minutes. Hence, new processing time for assignment problem is
500 + 20 = 520 minutes
