Ekon owns a small tow-truck business that responds to state patrol requests to tow cars involved in wrecks, as well as to private business requests from customers at various auto repair shops and individuals with stalled autos. Ekon’s business is open 24/7 for 365 days a year. He is starting to see too many repairs on his three trucks, which either means that he loses business or must divert a truck from another area. He is now trying to consider whether it is best to continue use of the current trucks or whether he needs to invest some money in new trucks. Using the steps for the process of capital decision-making, create an outline with sub-steps that include questions Ekon can use to guide his investigation or considerations of buying new trucks.
To help reduce the risk involved in capital investment, a process is required to thoughtfully select the best opportunity for the company.
The process for capital decision-making involves several steps:

The Gourmand Cooking School runs short cooking courses at its small campus. Management has identified two cost drivers it uses in its budgeting and performance reports—the number of courses and the total number of students. For example, the school might run two courses in a month and have a total of 63 students enrolled in those two courses. Data concerning the company’s cost formulas appear below:
Fixed Cost per Month | Cost per Course | Cost per Student |
|||||
Instructor wages | $ | 2,930 | |||||
Classroom supplies | $ | 280 | |||||
Utilities | $ | 1,240 | $ | 75 | |||
Campus rent | $ | 4,700 | |||||
Insurance | $ | 2,400 | |||||
Administrative expenses | $ | 3,800 | $ | 44 | $ | 3 | |
For example, administrative expenses should be $3,800 per month plus $44 per course plus $3 per student. The company’s sales should average $860 per student.
The company planned to run four courses with a total of 63 students; however, it actually ran four courses with a total of only 57 students. The actual operating results for September appear below:
