Implications of Advanced Method
Abstract: This paper discusses the implications of Advanced method for finding the optimal solution of transportation problem. Advanced method [2] does not give a solution nearly comparable to MODI method as claimed by Reena G Patel and P. H. Bathwala. In most of the transportation problems difference between the transportation costs given by both the methods are very high. . MODI method proved itself effective invariably in all cases till now. Even in most of the cases VAM gives a better feasible solution than Advanced Method. Two counter examples are given in this paper to prove this point.
Keywords: VAM, Transportation problem
