Abstract (2. Language): 
The North – West Corner Method (NWCM), the South – East Corner Method (SECM), the North – East Corner Method (NECM) and the South – East Corner Method (SECM), are adopted to compute the Initial Basic Feasible Solution (IBFS) of the transportation problem. In this paper, after giving the procedure of the SECM, we show that the NWCM and the SECM lead to the same solution, as well as the NECM and the SWCM.
