1. What are the pick-up, sort, linehaul, and delivery costs to Hardee for this move?
2. What is the total cost of this move? Cost per cwt.? Cost per revenue mile?
3. If Hardee would put two drivers in the tractor for the linehaul move, there would be no rest required for drivers during the linehaul move. What would happen to total costs?
4. Assume that Hardee has no loaded backhaul to return the vehicle and driver to Pittsburgh. How would you account for the empty backhaul costs associated with this move? Would you include those in the headhaul move? How would this impact your pricing strategy?
