All of a sudden, there is a demand for the product in five more cities that do not have any agency of the company The company is faced with the problem of deciding on how to assign the existing agencies to dispatch the product to the additional cities in such a way that the travelling distance is minimised. The distances (in km) between the surplus and deficit cities are given in the following distance matrix.2. Metropolitan Manila has four incinerator sites for processing solid waste. There are five garbage collection areas within the metropolis. The city wants to determine the least-cost method of disposing of its trash. Each incinerator is characterized by an operating cost for processing each ton of waste and also a cost for transporting each ton of waste is summarized in the table below: Collection Incinerator Site Area 1 2 3 4 50 120 110 60 B 100 55 90 70 60 40 80 65 90 75 85 110 80 100 95 65 Incinerator sites 1 and 2 have a weekly capacity of 6,000 tons each, site 3 has a capacity of 8,000 tons and site 4 has a capacity of 10,000 tons. There are 4,000 tons of waste generated at area A, 8,000 tons at area B and 5,000 tons each at areas C and D, each week. A total of 25,000 tons of waste each week are generated from all five areas.

Its main operations are at Mount Isa, in Queensland, Australia, where it mines adjacent deposits of copper and silver-lead-zinc ores. Production levels changes with world demand and prices, but in atypical year 7 million tonnes of ore are mined to give 150,000 tonnes of copper and lead (containing silver) and 200,000 tonnes of zinc. Mount Isa has serious transport problems. It produces huge quantities of ore in a remote area of Australia, while the main demand for finished metals is in the industrialised areas of the world, particularly Europe. The problem is to process the ores and move them to final markets as cheaply as possible. You can see the scope of the problem from an outline of the journey for copper, this starts with underground explosions to break up the ore body. The broken ore is collected by front-end loaders and put onto ore trains that carry it to underground crushers. The crushed ore is then hoisted to the…

The daily demand amounts at the four retailers are 150, 150, 400, and 100 crates, respectively. Supplies at the three orchards are dictated by available regular labor and are estimated at 150, 200, and 250 crates daily. However, both orchards 1 and 2 have indicated that they could supply more crates, if necessary, by using overtime labor. Orchard 3 does not offer this option. The transportation costs per crate from the orchards to the retailers are given in Table 5.27. Formulate the problem as a transportation model. Solve the problem. How many crates should orchards 1 and 2 supply using overtime labor? Note:- Do not provide handwritten solution. Maintain accuracy and quality in your answer. Take care of plagiarism.
