- Using the the 3 methods: Vogel's Approximation Method, Northwest Corner Method and Minimum Cost Method what is the total transportation cost per method?As part of Amazon logistics analytics team, you are tasked with creating a new algorithm that optimizes package deliveries in NYC. Specifically, your goal is to predict how many Amazon's own delivery vehicles (i.e. not UPS/USPS/FedEx) Amazon will need to send to streets of NYC on any given day. Explain which factors you might consider including in your prediction model and why. Suggested options include shipping costs for customers (1day/2day/5day), number of warehouses in the area (affects distance driven by vehicles), pick-up options such as Amazon Lockers in Whole Foods stores, number of deliveries fulfilled by UPS (as opposed to Amazon's own fleet), all kinds of traffic fees (tolls/parking fees/etc.).Explain how to determine the number of variables and constraints in a transportation problem when only the number of sources and the number of destinations are known. Be sure to provide examples to illustrate your understanding of these concepts.
- Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP); Given the following distance matrix, use the nearest neighbor (NN) heuristic to find a route that starts from the warehouse (W), visits each customer only once, and finishes at the warehouse to minimize the distance traveled. What is the route and the corresponding distance?

Describe briefly how you can resolve the following situations while solving the problem: (i) Total supply is greater than total demand,

Theprimary objective of the mill is to provide the farmers with a place to take their crop forprocessing that will reduce their transportation costs. The members of the co-op believe thatthe center-of-gravity method is appropriate for this objective. While there are over 200 sugarcane farms in the region, they are tightly clustered around six villages.
