Question

Assign the 4 departments in Table X to locations A, B, C, and D, which are separated by the distances shown in Table y, in such a way that transportation cost is minimized. Use this heuristic: assign departments with the greatest interdepartmental workflow first.

See attached table.

a.Fill up the table  attached.

b. Compute the total transportation cost if the cost to move one workload 1 meter apart is P5.00.

Table X Distance Between Locations (Meters) From A B C D A 25 15 45 To: Location B 25 20 30 C 15 20 50 D 45 30 50 - Table Y Interdepartmental Work Flow (Loads/Day) From 1 2 3 4 1 15 10 50 To: Department 2 45 20 60 3 20 35 - 55 4 30 40 70
