Hannibal Steel Company has a Transport Services Department that provides trucks to haul ore from the company's mine to its two steel mills-the Northern Plant and the Southern Plant. Budgeted costs for the Transport Services Department total $198,300 per year, consisting of $0.2 per ton variable cost and $148,300 fixed cost. The level of fixed cost is determined by peak-period requirements.
