Answer:

Henderson  = $1,200

Central States = $1,000

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

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

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
