In this paper a simple method for finding an optimal solution for Transportation problem. This method finds an optimal solution without requiring an initial basic feasible solution. In this method the number of allocation m+n-1 is satisfied for all problems. Numerical examples for the new simple method is explained and compared with the results of Modi method. This method does not require arithmetical and logical calculation. It is easy to understand and this method is very efficient for those who are dealing with Transportation problem. It can easily adopt an existing method.
