Transportation Problem
Find transport schedule to minimize the transportation cost for the following transportation problem. The transportation cost per unit and units demanded and available are given in the table.
$$\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|}\hline & \text{A} & \text{B} & \text{C} & \text{Units demanded} \ \hline X & 9 & 10 & 10 & 5 \ Y & 10 & 14 & 8 & 20 \ Z & 13 & 10 & 8 & 20 \ \hline \text{Units available} & 20 & 15 & 10 & 45 \ \hline \end{array}$$

The table structure needs careful reading. The headers list A, B, C, and "Units demanded" across the top, and the bottom row is "Units available." The row labels X, Y, Z are the supply sources. Cost matrix (rows = X, Y, Z; columns = A, B, C): A B C Units demanded (row total = supply per row?) ---...
