Two examples of the Linear Programming Transportation Problem are given. The first is videos 1, 2, and 3. The second is videos 4, 5, and 6.
The Least Cost Method (sometimes called the Low Cost Method or the Minimum Cost Method) is use to find the initial feasible solution. This method typically gets you closer to a solution than the Northwest Corner Method.
The Stepping Stone Method is the second video in the series and is a good teaching tool to aid in the understanding of how to reach an optimal solution.
The 3rd video in each Series is the MODI or Modified Distribution Method and is the best way to solve a Transportation Problem.
