1. A regional home goods store has outlets in Atlanta, Birmingham, Charleston, and Jacksonville, and Chattanooga. Products are sent to these facilities in weekly LTL shipments to fulfil their orders from a DC in Savannah (sends total volume of 80 FTL of European import goods), a DC in Fort Worth (200 FTL Asian and Central American Import Goods), and a manufacturing facility in Greenville, SC (that sends 180 FTL of fabrics and carpet).

Management has located a facility in Macon, Georgia that is well suited to breakbulk operations for their products. It could be leased for $50,000 per month and would have $750,000 in annual operating costs (including triple net costs of tax, maintenance and insurance). The current and estimated shipping costs are provided in a table below.
