The document proposes a new method called Ones Method for finding an optimal solution to transportation problems directly. The method involves constructing a transportation table and allocating units to cells starting with the minimum demand/supply. Units are allocated to cells with the maximum number of ones until all demands are satisfied and supplies exhausted. The method is illustrated on sample problems and shown to find the same optimal solutions as existing methods but in a simpler way. It provides a systematic procedure that is easy to apply to transportation problems.
