1) Identify a wrong statement of LPP

Multiple optimal solution

Semi optimal solution

None of the above

2) In a multicriteria decision problem

It is impossible to select single decision alternative

It is impossible to select a single decision alternative with respect to each..

Each of the above is true

3) Which of the following assumptions not related to LLP

Proportionality

None of the above

Continuity of decision variable

4) Which of the following assumptions not related to LLP

Proportionality

None of the above

Continuity of decision variables

5) 4x1 + 6x2 <8 is

A nonlinear equation

A Linear equation

A nonlinear inequality

A linear inequality

6) If the number of sources is not equal to number of destinations in assignment

Balanced

Symmetric

Unbalanced

Unsymmetric
7) The maximum value that 5x1 + 6x2 can take provided x1 and x2 satisfy x1 + x2 = 8 and 2x1 + 4x2
= 20 is

46

20

42

8) The minimum number of lines covering all zeros in a reduced cost table can be ( n)

At least n

n-1

at most r + c – 1 ( r rows, c columns )

at most n

9) Mark the wrong statement

In case there is a tie in the maximum Penalty, either of them can be selected for making
allocation.

The least cost method always gives the least cost solution to a transportation problem

In the penalty method, a cost differences indicates the penalty of not using the least – cost
route.

In comparison with the north – west corner rule, both, the least – cost and vogel’s
approximation method, are better because they provide near optimal initial solution.

10) For a two person game where A and B are, respectively, the minimizing and maximizing players
the optimal strategies are

Maximin for A and Minimax for B

Minimin for A and Maximax for B

Maximax for A and Minimin for B

Minimax for A and Maximin for B

11) A player is played when

When the latecomer says that he starts the game

Each player chooses one of his courses of action simultaneously

The player who comes to the place first says that he will start the game

The manager gives green signal

12) An optimal solution is one that __________

Gives the minimum cost while satisfying the constraints

Optimizes the objective while satisfying the constraints

Gives the maximum profit while satisfying the constraints

Maximizes the objective while satisfying the constraints

13) If the values of the objective function z can be increased indefinitely, such solution is called

None of the above

Unbounded solution

14) Which of the following is not true about LPP?

The constraints must all be 3 are £ type

The maximization or minimization of some functions is the objective

There are restrictions ( i.e, constraints ) which limit the degree to which the objective can be
pursued

15) Network models have advantage in terms of project

Planning

All of the above

Scheduling

Controlling

16) The objective of network analysis is

Maximize total project duration

All of the above

Minimize production delays

Minimize total project cost

17) Feasible solution satisfies

None of the above

Dummy

Successor

22) Feasible solution satisfies

None of the above

Only constraints

Both a and b

Only non-negative restriction

23) Make the correct statement

Static decisions are decisions that are never changed

Digging a well for possible oil is an example of decision – making when the opponent is nature
 Dynamic decision are decisions made by dynamic mangers

24) Make the wrong statement

To take decision is to choose a specific course of action from a set of possible options

Decision – making is an integral part of the management process

Decision – making involves selecting a course of action that is simplest to adopt in practice
