Original Abstract

The paper solves the problem of effectiveness of various methods with respect to the sizes. We study and compare the North West Corn method, index method, Vogel method. It is obvious that the first allocation required values of goods by customers will be most expansive when using North West Corn method which is based on geographical principle without any economical conditions. We show that the index method gives a better result than North West Corn method but the Vogel method brings a better solution with respect to sizes. We modified Vogel method and we show by example that for greater matrixes among suppliers and customers, the modified method the gives optimum solution.
