The total annual costs for the Alpha Ave. location with twenty persons living there is:
= $9,000.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
ANNUAL OPERATING COSTS
LOCATION FIXED VARIABLE Total Costs
Alpha Ave. $5,000 $200 per person $9,000 ($5,000 + $200 * 20)
Beta Blvd. $8,000 $150 per person $11,000 ($8,000 + $150 * 20)
b)The variable cost of each location varies according to the number of persons living there and the rate incurred per person. The fixed cost does not vary, at least, with the relevant range for either location. When the total variable costs are computed, these are added to the fixed cost to obtain the total costs. Then there is a comparison of the two locations to determine the location with the least total costs.
