Triangle Business Service Inc. (TBS) is a delivery service specializing in small parcels, envelopes, and packages. TBS guarantees delivery of within 90 minutes for any business or residence in the Triangle area. The owner of the business is currently evaluating the choice between two different cost structures for a planned increase in the business operations. One option is to buy 200 vehicles and hire delivery personnel to deliver the packages. Option two is to hire delivery personnel who would use their owen vehicles for deliveries; the delivery personnel in this case would be compensated for their time and alsofor the use of their vehicles. For corporate purposes, the delivery personnel under option two would be required to attach a magnetic decal to their car or truck to identify it as a provider for TBS. Option one is the high fixed cose, high leverage option, and option two has the lower fixed cost but significantly higher variable cost. For simplicity, we assume that each package is delivered for the same prie of $60.
