The parameter table given below shows the transportation problem
formulation of Option 1 for the Better Products Co. problem
presented in Sec. 9.3 of the textbook. As stated in the textbook,
the optimal solution for this transportation problem has the
following basic variables (allocations):
x12 = 30, x13 = 30, x15 = 15, x24 = 15, x25 = 60, x31 = 20, x34
= 25
Verify that this optimal solution actually is optimal by
applying just the optimality test portion...
