Help with linear programming!

[Excelhelp]

I have to develop a short term bank optimization model using linear
programming. This needs to be done using a balance sheet.

Can anyone help? I am so lost, and I have never been around linear
programming.

You could start by looking at the SolvSamp.xls workbook that is installed in
the Samples folder when Solver is installed. It has a "Maximizing Income"
worksheet that models a kind of short term optimization.

Another source of example workbooks is the web site www.solver.com.

And many accounting and finance textbooks include examples.

After you learn about the basics, you'll be able to ask specific questions
about your situation.
