Respuesta :

Answer:

(a) $550,550; $512,080

(b) $1.43 per mile; $1.73 per mile

Explanation:

(a) January:

Total cost to operate the aircraft:

= Fixed cost + Variable cost

= $377,300 + ($0.45 × 385,000 miles)

= $377,300 + $173,250

= $550,550

February:

Total cost to operate the aircraft:

= Fixed cost + Variable cost

= $378,880 + ($0.45 × 296,000 miles)

= $378,880 + $133,200

= $512,080

(b)

Total costs per mile to operate the fleet in January:

= Total cost in January ÷ Miles flew in January

= $550,550 ÷ 385,000

= $1.43 per mile

Total costs per mile to operate the fleet in February:

= Total cost in February ÷ Miles flew in February

= $512,080 ÷ 296,000

= $1.73 per mile
