Abstract

Frequently, problems involving a management activity involve the incurring of a setup charge for the activity. In these cases, the total cost of the activity is the sum of the variable cost related to the level of the activity and a set up cost required to initiate the activity. In this research, we will also use goals that involve demand management of service centers based upon the revenue potential of the customer districts they will serve.
