      <abstract>
        <p>This work shows a transportation problem (TP) that can be thought of as the sum of a linear function and a linear fractional function. Here, the linear function shows the total transportation cost, and the linear fractional function shows the proportion of damaged objects and the transport profit. We aim to set up a transportation plan that reduces the total transportation cost and the proportion of total damage to the object to the total profit. Here we are discussing three types of objective functions as: linear plus linear fractional, linearfractional, and linear separately. We formulated a TP using the three objective functions for the solution. We solve all three objective functions for different weights with the proposed method and get a compromise solution.</p>
