A parametric method is proposed for solving a special production-transportation problem with two factories, and the minimum concave cost flow problem on a single source uncapacitated network with a single nonlinear arc cost. The resulting algorithms are strongly polynomial. The algorithm for the network flow problem is an improved version of an earlier polynomial algorithm of Guisewite and Pardalos.
