The document outlines shipment data for various orders and truck options, detailing weights, volumes, and costs. It presents an optimized solution that consolidates shipments into fewer trucks, resulting in significant cost savings. The total cost per kilometer with consolidation is 285 INR compared to 500 INR without, yielding a savings of 215 INR per kilometer.

Absolutely! Let's fill in the tables with the provided information.

Table 1: Shipment Data


Order # Destination Weight (kg) Volume (m³) Urgency
101 Mumbai 2500 12 Medium
102 Delhi 5000 25 High
103 Chennai 7500 40 Low
104 Bangalore 4000 18 High
105 Hyderabad 6000 30 Medium
106 Kolkata 8000 45 Low
107 Pune 3000 15 Medium
108 Ahmedabad 7000 38 High
109 Jaipur 4500 20 Low
110 Lucknow 6500 32 Medium
Table 2: Truck Options
Truck Type Max Weight (kg) Max Volume (m³) Cost per km (INR)
Small 10000 20 20
Medium 10020 50 35
Large 20000 100 50
Table 3: Optimized Solution
Since the image shows "Large" and "101, 107" in the first row, let's fill that in and then calculate
the rest.
Truck # Assigned Total Weight Total Volume Truck Type Total Cost (INR
Orders (kg) (m³) Used per km)
1 101, 107 2500 + 3000 = 12 + 15 = 27 Large 50
5500
2 102, 104 5000 + 4000 = 25 + 18 = 43 Medium 35
9000
3 105, 110 6000 + 6500 = 30 + 32 = 62 Large 50
12500
4 103, 109 7500 + 4500 = 40 + 20 = 60 Large 50
12000
5 106, 108 8000 + 7000 = 45 + 38 = 83 Large 50
15000
Scenario Calculations
●​ Without Consolidation: Each order would require its own truck. We'd need 10 trucks.
Let's assume we use the most efficient truck for each (likely Large for most).
○​ Total Cost (Without): 10 trucks * 50 INR/km = 500 INR/km
●​ With Consolidation: We used 5 trucks.
○​ Total Cost (With): 5 trucks * 50 INR/km (for the Large trucks) + 1 truck * 35 INR/km
(for the Medium truck) = 285 INR/km
●​ Total Savings: 500 INR/km - 285 INR/km = 215 INR/km
Scenario Table
Scenario Total Cost per km (INR)
Without Consolidation 500
With Consolidation 285
Total Savings 215
Important Notes:
●​ The solution assumes we are minimizing the number of trucks used. Other optimization
criteria could lead to different results.
●​ The cost per km is assumed to be constant for each truck type, regardless of the load. In
reality, fuel consumption and costs can vary based on weight and distance.
●​ This solution is based on the limited information in the image. More complex scenarios
would require more detailed information and optimization algorithms.
