HCT's head office controls all new vehicle purchases but allows each location to set its own rental rates, determine its own depreciation expense, and obtain vehicle repair and maintenance services as the vehicles are used during he year. Each location has had the same number of vehicles and has not changed its rental rates since HCT started operations two years ago.
