If increasing RHS increases Z, the shadow price will be

Positive

Negative

If Z doesn't change, the shadow price is

Zero

What causes SP = 0

Non binding constraint

Maximization Problem: Increasing the RHS of a ≤ constraint (expands, contracts) the feasible space, (increasing, decreasing) the value of Z, and generates a (positive, negative) SP.

Expands


Increasing


Positive

Maximization Problem: Increasing the RHS of a ≥ constraint (expands, contracts) the feasible space, (increasing, decreasing) the value of Z, and generates a (positive, negative) SP.

Contracts


Decreasing


Negative

Minimization Problem: Increasing the RHS of a ≤ constraint (expands, contracts) the feasible space, (increasing, decreasing) the value of Z, and generates a (positive, negative) SP.

Shadow Price Formula

(new z - old z) / (new RHS - old RHS)

Shadow Price: Definition

Marginal valuation


The cost of producing using one more unit input


Producer's opportunity cost of the next unit


Either increase price (use input) or discount price (don't meet requirements)

SP Mathematical Rule

Slack * SP = 0

Slack

RHS - LHS

Shadow Price Interpretation

* Within the range of allowable decrease thru allowable decrease, optimal activity levels stay the same, but objective value changes by shadow price if we increase or decrease RHS by 1
* Outside of this range, optimal activity levels will change, creating a new shadow price
