The Northwest Corner Rule is a method used to find an initial feasible solution for transportation problems. It starts at the top-left (northwest) corner of the tableau and allocates as much as possible to the shipping routes, moving either right or down. The cost for the solution using this method is calculated by summing the products of the allocated units and their respective costs, which in this case totals to 53.
