Abstract: 
In this paper, the author shall demonstrate that when all demands and supply schedules are either linear or are points or scalars, then the generalized transportation problem and its dual can be expressed as a primal-dual quadratic program, this latter program being due to Dorn (1960) and Mangasarian (1969). The duality theorem of Dorn (1960) provides the mathematical foundation for the existence of a solution to the linear version of the generalized transportation problem and its dual.
