The City of Imperial Falls contracts with Evergreen Waste Collection to provide solid waste collection to households and businesses. Until recently, Evergreen had an exclusive franchise to provide this service in Imperial Falls, which meant that other waste collection firms could not operate legally in the city. The price per pound of waste collected was regulated at 25 percent above the average tota cost of collection. Cost data for the most recent year of operations for Evergreen are as follows. Data on customers for the most recent year are as follows. The City Council of Imperial Falls is considering allowing other private waste haulers to collect waste from businesses, but not from households. Service to businesses from other waste collection firms would not be subject to price regulation. Based on information from neighboring cities, the price that other private waste collection firms will charge is estimated to be $0.05 per pound (=$100 per ton). (1 ton =2.000 pounds) Evergreen's CEO has approached the city council with a proposal to change the way costs are allocated to households and businesses, which will result in different rates for households and businesses. She proposes thot administrative costs and truck operating costs be allocated based on the number of customers and the other collection costs be allocated based on pounds collected. The total costs aliocated to households would then be divided by the estimated number of pounds collected from households to determine the cost of collection. The rate would then be 25 percent above the cost. The rate for businesses would be. determined using the same calculation. Required: a. Based on cost date from the most recent year, what is the price per pound charged by Evergreen for wuste collection under the current system (the same rote for both types of customers)? b.
