The Hart Company sells and delivers office furniture in Sudbury. Here are the costs associated with the acquisition and operation (on an annual basis) of a delivery truck.

* depending on the service life

Work to do :

a) Suppose the Hart Company bought a truck and it drove 50,000 kilometers in the first year. Calculate the average cost per kilometer of owning and operating this truck.

b) At the start of the second year, the company wonders whether it should continue to use the truck or leave it in the garage and entrust all its deliveries to specialist companies. (The government requires payment of license fees for vehicles even if they are not in use.) What costs from the previous list are relevant to this decision? Explain your answer.

c) Suppose the company decides to use the truck in the second year. Towards the end of the year, she receives an order from a customer who lives more than 1,000 kilometers away. Which costs from the previous list are relevant in the decision to use the truck to make the delivery or to entrust this task to a specialized company? Explain your answer.

d) Sometimes the company needs two trucks at the same time. Management is considering the possibility of purchasing a second. The total number of kilometers driven would be the same as for one of these vehicles. Which costs from the previous list are relevant in deciding whether or not to buy this second truck? Explain your answer.

Assume you are working for the US government. The president wants your department to study the clothing market. The US governments need to raise revenues from the Clothing market, and you are assigned to study the cotton shirt market. You have access to the previous data: - If P = 20 then ???? = 80. If P = 30 then ???? = 70. - If P = 20 then ???? = 25. If P= 30 then ???? = 40. The US government needs at least 200 dollars of revenues raised from this market. If you raise more than that the government will accept the money but the president prefers you only raise that amount. So, make sure you do not make people pay too much unless you must. (The government revenue >= 200)

The US government needs at least 200 dollars of revenues raised from this market. If you raise more than that the government will accept the money but the president prefers you only raise that amount. So, make sure you do not make people pay too much unless you must. (The government revenue >= 200)

a.) Try to impose a tax. You consider imposing X dollar amount of tax on each shirt being sold. You can impose this tax on buyers or sellers. Which one do you prefer? How much will be the tax imposed on each shirt? How much will the consumer surplus and producer surplus in this market change after you introduce this tax?

b.) The President signed a free trade agreement with the Japanese prime minister. The shirt market is operating under free trade now with a world price of 20 dollars. Instead of taxing the market, you can impose a tariff to raise revenues for the government without hurting the domestic producers. How much will be tariff you impose on foreign-made shirts? How much will the consumer surplus and producer surplus change after you impose this tariff?

c.) Now that the shirt market is open to foreign producers as well, you can tax, impose a tariff, or use a combination of both. Provide an optimal policy for the US government to raise the needed revenues while minimizing the damage to American consumers and producers.

Three different companies each purchased trucks on January 1, Year 1, for $50,000. Each truck was expected to last four years or 200,000 miles. Salvage value was estimated to be $5,000. All three trucks were driven 66,000 miles in Year 1, 42,000 miles in Year 2, 40,000 miles in Year 3, and 60,000 miles in Year 4. Each of the three companies earned $40,000 of cash revenue during each of the four years. Company A uses straight-line depreciation, company B uses double-declining-balance depreciation, and company C uses units-of-production depreciation.
