2. Consider a transportation problem with 3 sources and 4 destinations. The parameters are given below: = = a1 = 35,02 = 50, a3 = 40, b1 = 45, 62 = 20,63 = 30, b4 = 30 C11 = 8, C12 = 6,013 = 10, C14 = 9 = 9, C22 = 12, C23 = 13,024 = 7 C31 = 14, C32 = 9, C33 = 16, C34 = 5 C21 = = where a; is the supply from Source i, b; the demand from Destination j, and Cij the cost of transporting goods from Source i to Destination j. (a) Find an initial feasible solution using the north-west corner method described in lecture note. (b) Solve the problem using the algorithm described in lecture note. (c) What are the optimal cost and optimal solution?
