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. |
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. |
Expands Increasing Positive |
|
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 |

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 |
