Simplex Table-1 Format for Maximization Case
In below write Modified Objective Function
Contributio Basic Basic 0 0 Minimum
n/Unit Solution Variable
(CJ) X1 X2 S1 S2 Ratio
Variable Value
0 S1 Write down Cofficient of Modified Constraint 1
0 S2 Write down Cofficient of Modified Constraint 2
0 S3 Write down Cofficient of Modified Constraint 3 (If any)
Here S1, S2 & S3 are ZJ
Slack Variable CJ-ZJ
Now Find Following:
1. Key Column (Maximum Value of CJ-ZJ)
2. Key Row (Minimum Ratio )
3. Key Element (Intersection of Key Row and Key Column)
4. All other rows then Key rows are NON KEY ROWS
5. Note down Corrsponding Value of Key Element in Non Key Row
Now Calculate New Values of Key Rows and Non Key Rows and prepare Table 2
1. New Key Row Value by Dividing all old values by Key Element
2. New Non Key Row values:
Old Value of Non Key Row - (Corresponding Value of Key Element in Non Key Rows X New Key Row
value)
