Here the answer is OPTION A..since when there is total supply is equal to total demand than the transportation problem is balanced and when m+n-1 is not equal to allocation than the problem is degenrate
there is no condition applied so it should be option(a)
It should be option A. When total supply is equal to total demand the TP matrix is called balanced.
It should be A option . As TP is considered as balanced if total supply is equal to total demand.
