Economics and Data Analytics: Northwest Newsprint Case

Posted on by Leakey
  1. After formulating and solving the problem as an LP, how does the solution differ from the original allocation
    plan? What are the benefits and from where do they seem to be derived?
  2. Can Northwest save money through freight rate discounts on volumes larger than 100,00 tonnes? If so, how
    much?
  3. Should a 58,000 tonnes per year machine at Naomee Mills be converted to groundwood specialties?
  4. Can you recommend specific “delivery swap” arrangements to improve Northwest’s bottom line?
  5. Which, if any, of the other long-term alternatives should be given serious consideration and for what
    reason(s)?
