The corner point solution method requires that the profit from all corners (or vertices) of the feasible region be compared in order to find the optimum solution. It does not necessarily provide one and only one optimum, as there may be multiple corners with the same optimal profit. This method may yield different results from the isoprofit line solution method, which involves drawing a line representing a desired profit level and finding the point on that line that is on the edge of the feasible region. The corner method does require that all corners created by all constraints be compared, but it can still provide a solution at an intersection or corner where a non-negativity constraint is involved.
