NO. Question 4 An Assignment Problem ANSWER: You are working as a regional sales manager and need to minimize the costs of your sales engineers (A,B,C,D) to fly to different cities to meet with prospectus customers. The costs of regional travel is as shown, please a) Calculate and assign which engineer should fly to which city and b) Calculate the total costs of the resultant flying expenditure for budget preparation To City From B C D City 1 200 240 350 300 City 2 250 200 380 250 City 3 400 350 400 200 City 4 200 260 340 200 Hint: The principle of solving an assignment problem is to find the opportunity cost of different combinations. The first step is to compare and find the minimum opportunity cost of flying to a given city by different engineers. Step 1: (fill in the following table) Row Reduction City Engineer A B D 1 2 3 The second step is to compare and find the minimum opportunity cost of flying to different cities by a given engineer. This part builds upon the reduced table in step 1 and so any error in step 1 would impact the results of this sten Step 2: (fill in the following table) Column Reduction City Engineer B D 1 3 Note: Other steps are not necessary for this particular problem. You should have obtained the results after these two steps for this problem. Please do not forget to find the total costs of flying. c) How do you modify if the above table indicates profits (rather than costs)? (50 words)
