New methods for solving the problem of enterprise's production activity planning

The possibility is shown and the description and solution methods of the volumetric planning problem based on the enterprise bookkeeping data are developed. The methods allow to solve the planning problems directly on specific enterprise data and to present the results in terms and concepts assumed in bookkeeping accounting. Formally, the planning problem is reduced to the well-known constrained optimization problem of a multivariable function that can be solved using the known techniques. In view of the problem's linearity the LP methods are preferable.
