# employees 10 -- 80 100 60
Sq ft -- 15,000 30,000 35,000 20,000

Custodial: Square feet
Administrative: Number of employees
Required:
Franklin has been approached by Sparkle Cleaning to outsource the custodial service. Assuming all costs are variable, what is the relevant cost of the custodial department to compare with the Sparkle Cleaning bid?
Correct answers: My answers
Custodial = $250,000 + (10/(10 + 80 + 100 + 60) Admin) 266,000 I do not get $267,606
Admin = $400,000 + (15,000/(15,000 + 30,000 + 35,000 + 20,000) Custodial)
Custodial = $267,606
Admin: $400,000 + 40,141 = $440,141 [$400,000 + (.15 $267,606 = $40,141)] 437,500 I do not get $440,141
Custodial: $250,000 + 17,606 = $267,606 [ $250,000 + (.04 $440,141 = $17,606)]
