.
It aims at providing assistance to the top
management in ascertaining how many units of a
particular product should be transported from each
supply origin to each demand destinations to that
the total prevailing demand for the company’s
product is satisfied, while at the same time the
total transportation costs are minimized
i.e.; The total supply available at the plants exactly matches
the total demand at the destinations. Hence, there is neither
excess supply nor excess demand.
Such type of problems where supply and demand are
exactly equal are known as Balanced Transportation
Problem.

Here all the dij values are positive, therefore the solution is
optimal.

Demand Greater than Supply
The second type of unbalanced condition
occurs when total demand is greater than
total supply
In this case we need to add a dummy row
representing a fake factory
The new factory will have a supply exactly
equal to the difference between total
demand and total real supply
