Implications Of SS Method

Abstract

This paper discusses the implications of SS method for finding the optimal solution of transportation problem.SS method^[2] does not give  optimal solution in all transportation problems as claimed by A.seethalakshmy and Dr.N.Srinivasan (2016)^[1]  .In some of the transportation problems difference between the transportation costs as worked out  by SS method and   MODI method is very high. .One counter example is given in this paper to prove this assertion.
