Answer:

Henderson  = $1,200

Central States = $1,000

Based on the calculations, Central States Railroad is better at a lower cost than Henderson

Explanation:

The question is to do an evaluation of the costs of use Henderson Bulk Trucking Company or the Central States Railroad

Step 1) Determine the cost of using Henderson

What is the cost per tank  truck = $600

What is the capacity in gallons = 700 galloons

However, since XYZ Chemical needs to ship 9,600 gallons, it means it will make use of 2 trucks from Henderson as follows

The cost of Henderson Bulk Trucking = $600 x 2 = $1,200

Step 2) Determine the cost of using Central Railroad

What is the cost per tank  truck = $1000

What is the capacity in gallons = 23,500 galloons

since XYZ Chemical needs to ship 9,600 gallons, it means it will make use of only one of the trucks

The cost of Central Roilroad= $1000 x 1 = $1,000

Based on the calculations, Central States Railroad is better at a lower cost than Henderson

5. Note payable $50,500

    Interest expense $1,010

   Interest payable $2,020

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

This is very simple, they should start billing their clients right away.

You don't have to bill your clients for the full legal expenses, but they for sure need to start making some money.

It is very normal that new businesses don't get enough revenue to cover their operation expenses right away. Even for big corporations, like Amazon and FB, it may take years to reach the break even point.

When you open a business you have to keep some money as reserve to cover some expenses for at least a few months.
