Holiday Resort
A company is planning to build a resort in the Poconos. They have the following requirements:
There are three kinds of buildings, a Chalet, a Mountain Home, and a Cabin.
- The Chalet has 4 bedrooms, is 1460 square feet of floor space, and costs $85,000 to build.
- The Mountain Home has 2 bedrooms, is 980 square feet of floor space, and costs $60,000 to build.
- The Cabin has 1 bedroom, is 740 square feet of floor space, and costs $50,000 to build.
The building code requires that at least three of each type of building be built in the resort.
Carpeting comes in three grades with the following costs:
- Grade 1 $17 per square yard
- Grade 2 $12 per square yard
- Grade 3 $8 per square yard
The company has $1.2 million to build the resort.
Write a program that will give the following information:
- What is the most buildings of each type they can build? Assume that for each points combination of buildings they use the best carpet they can afford.
- For each combination of buildings/carpet what is the total cost?
- Show the following in
an output matrix:
Building type, cost to build, total square feet, grade of carpet, cost of carpet, total cost.
An example of the layout of the matrix is shown below:
----- Building type Cost to Square Grade of Cost of Total Build Feet Carpet Carpet Cost Chalet $xxx 3 3 4 $xxx Mt. Home $xxx 4 3 3 $xxx Cabin $xxx 6 8 4 $xxx
- The company
estimates they can rent the buildings for the following prices and
points estimate the
length of time each year they will be rented as follows:
Building Rental Occupied Type Chalet $1000/wk 26 wk/y Mountain Home $800/wk 30 wk/y Cabin $400/wk 45 wk/yr
- Add a column to the
output matrix that shows, for each combination of buildings,
the rental income for the
year.
The layout would now be:
Building type Cost to Square Grade of Cost of Total Rental Income Build Feet Carpet Carpet Cost Chalet 3 3 4 $xxx $xxx $xxx Mt. Home 4 3 3 $xxx $xxx $xxx Cabin 6 8 4 $xxx $xxx $xxx
