can you solve this using the following algorithm
VAM
Given an initial balanced transportation tableau.
Compute the di
erence of two smallest entries in every row and column of the tableau and
write this di
erence opposite the row or column. If there is only one entry in any row or
column, write that entry.
Choose the largest di
erence and use the smallest cost in the corresponding row or column
to empty a warehouse or completely fill a market demand. If there is a tie for the largest
di
erence, use the smallest entry in the corresponding rows andor columns. If there is a tie
for the smallest entry, use any such entry. Circle the cost used and write above the circle
the amount of goods shipped by that route. Reduce the supply and demand in the row and
column containing the cost used.
Delete the row or column corresponding to the emptied warehouse or fully supplied market.
If both happen simultaneously, delete the row unless that row is the only row remaining in
which case delete the column.
If all tableau entries are deleted, STOP; otherwise go to Step
