Keyword: «mathematical model analysis of main methods for finding optimal solutions»

Using econometric models gives big advantages over other ways of finding the best solution from an eco-nomic point of view. Transportation problem is one of the most commonly used at the enterprises of eco-nomic and mathematical models. The paper shows principles of construction of model of the transportation problem and identifies its OS-basic properties that determine an optimal solution. Also the analysis of the main methods for finding optimal solutions is made.
