Abstract
The objective of this project is to minimize total transportation cost plus
penalty cost for shortage of supply.
The work focused on formulating transportation problem under shortage of
supply and penalty for unmet demand mathematically and converting the
problem in to minimum cost
ow network .
The network simplex method is used to solve the problem.
The extended transportation problem which is the transshipment problem
also considered in the work. The problem is supported by numerical illustra-
tion and Matlab implementation.
