A firm has prepared the following binary integer program to evaluate a number of potential locations for new warehouses. The firm's goal is to maximize the net present value of their decision while not spending more than their currently available capital.
Max 20x1 + 30x2 + 10x3 + 15x4
s.t. 5x1 + 7x2 + 12x3 + 11x4 ? 21 {Constraint 1}
X1 + x2 + x3 + x4 ? 2 {Constraint 2}
X1 + x2 ? 1 {Constraint 3}
X1 + x3 ? 1 {Constraint 4}
X2 = x4 {Constraint 5}
