Description: The initial basic feasible solution (IBFS) is a
        significant step to achieve the minimal total cost (optimal
        solution) of the transportation problem. However, the existing
        methods of IBFS do not always provide a good feasible solution
        which can reduce the number of iterations to find the optimal
        solution. This initial basic feasible solution can be obtained
        by using any of the following methods. a) North West Corner
        Method. b) Least Cost Method. c) Row Minimum Method. d) Column
        Minimum Method. e) Vogel's Approximation Method. etc. For more
        technical details about the algorithms please refer below URLs.
