These fees have caused some shifts in customer behavior, as more airline passengers bring their own snacks on the airline and pack a smaller bag that is acceptable for “carry-on”. By using carry-on luggage, the airline customer can save $25 or more in baggage-checking fees. This situation has resulted in a cost shifting for passengers, airlines, and airport security. As the number of checked bag decreases, the cost of baggage handling for the airlines decreases (and revenues increase for those bags that are checked). In contrast, the costs and delays in security checkpoints increase as security personnel must check additional carry-on bags, causing delays for passengers and the need for additional security personnel to handle the increased number of…arrow_forward

- Borges Machine Shop, Inc., has a 1-year contract for the production of 75,000 gear housings for a new off-road vehicle, Owner Luis Borges hopes the contract will be extended and the volume increased next year. Borges has developed costs for three alternatives. They are general-purpose equipment (GPE), flexible manufacturing system (FMS), and expensive, but efficient, dedicated machine (DM). The cost data follow Annual contracted units Annual fixed cost Per unit variable cost General-Purpose Equipment (GPE) 75,000 $100,000 $16.00 Flexible Manufacturing System (FMS) 75,000 $225,000 $14.00 Dedicated Machine (DM) 75,000 $450,000 $13.75 Based on the total cost, the process that is best suited for the current contracted volume is Suppose the contracted volume changes to 275,000 gear housings.
