    The document describes two transportation problems: 1) A company has 3 factories and 3 warehouses. The factories have capacities of 500, 600, and 800 units and the warehouses have demands of 400, 500, and 300 units. There is a cost to transport units between each factory and warehouse. The optimal transportation schedule is found using the VAM method and has a cost of Rs. 13,400. 2) M/s BMS Ltd has 3 factories and 5 warehouses. The factories have supplies of 50, 100, and 150 units and the warehouses have demands of 100, 70, 50, 40, and 40 units. There is again a transportation cost per unit between each factory and warehouse. Using a scientific allocation

    QMB TEST No.6 Transportation Problems (TIME = 50 MINUTES)

    1. A company has 3 factories from which products are supplied to 3 warehouses. Capacities at factories
    are 500, 600 & 800. Demands at warehouses are 400, 500 & 300 units.
    Unit cost of transportation is as given below –

    W1 W2 W3
    F1 11 13 12
    F2 8 11 7
    F3 15 19 17

    It is not possible to transport any quantity from F2 to W3 due to operational constraints.


    1} Find IFS by VAM & test for optimality by Modified Distribution method.
    2} Is the solution obtained in IFS optimal?
    3} Is there an Alternate optimal solution?

    (Ans: IFS Cost = Rs. 13,400)

    2. M/s BMS Ltd. Have 3 factories & 5 warehouses. For the following conditions, they want to obtain an
    optimal transportation schedule. Presently they are incurring a transportation cost of Rs. 12,000.
    Supply - F1- 50, F2- 100, F3- 150
    Demand - W1-100, W2-70, W3-50, W4-40, W5-40

    Transportation cost per unit –

    W1 W2 W3 W4 W5
    F1 20 28 32 55 70
    F2 48 36 40 44 25
    F3 35 55 22 45 48

    Due to scientific method of allocation of transportation, will there be any saving for the company in
    cost?

    (Ans: IFS cost = Rs. 11,120; Optimal cost = Rs. 9,240)
