Consider a balanced transportation problem with the cost of transportation Cij given by:

C11=10,C12=0,C13=20,C14=11C11=10,C12=0,C13=20,C14=11,

C21=12,C22=7,C23=9,C24=20C21=12,C22=7,C23=9,C24=20 ,

C31=0,C32=14,C33=16,C34=18C31=0,C32=14,C33=16,C34=18,

with the current basic feasible solution (BFS): x12=15,x22=0,x23=15,x24=10,x31=5,x34=0x12=15,x22=0,x23=15,x24=10,x31=5,x34=0. Then
