Problem.4 the hardrock concrete company has plants in three locations

and is currently working on three major construction
Projects, each located at a different site. The shipping cost per truckload
of concrete, daily plant
Capacities, and daily project requirements are provided in the
accompanying table.

A) formulate an initial feasible solution to hardrocks transportation problem using vam.

B) then solve using the modi method.
C) was the initial solution optimal?

Problem.5 the jessie cohen clothing group owns factories in three towns
(w, y, and z) that distribute to three cohen
Retail dress shops (in a, b, and c). Factory availabilities, projected store
demands, and unit shipping costs are

Summarized in the table that follows:

Use vogels approximation method to find an initial feasible solution to this transportation problem. Is
your
Vam solution optimal?

Problem.6

the saussy lumber company ships pine flooring to three building supply houses from
its mills in pineville,
Oak ridge, and mapletown. Determine the best transportation schedule for the data given in the
accompanying

Table. Use the northwest corner rule and the modi method.
