Handout$-$Transportation

Network Design$-$Example $1$: A company wants to decide on the number of products that should be sent

from its warehouses to its stores. The company has $4$ plants and $10$ stores. The demand, capacity, and the

transportation costs per unit are provided in the next Table. Find the optimal number of products that should

be sent from each warehouse to each retail store.

Network Design$-$Class Activity $1$: A company wants to decide on the number of products that should

be sent from its production facilities to its stores. The company has $5$ plants and $6$ stores. The demand,

capacity, and the transportation costs per unit are provided in the next Table. Find the optimal number of

products that should be sent from each facility to each retail store.

Network Design with Fixed Costs$-$Example $1$: Consider "Network Design$-$Example $1".$ Assume

that there is for each warehouse we need to pay a fixed cost. Fixed costs are as follows:

Calculate the optimal transportation quantity and what warehouses should be used.
