This document is a presentation about obtaining initial feasible solutions for transportation and assignment problems using the Northwest Corner Method (NWCM), Least Cost Method (LCM), and Vogel's Approximation Method (VAM). It discusses each of these three methods and provides examples of how to apply them. At the end, students are given an exercise to practice solving a case using NWCM, LCM, and VAM. The presentation was given by Dr. V. M. Tidake from Sanjivani College of Engineering to help students understand how to find initial feasible solutions for transportation and assignment problems.
