Microtech Incorporated has decided to package its cell phone in a smaller, recyclable package. Additionally, the company will discontinue the practice of shipping each phone with a 250-page user manual and instead will make the manual available online. These changes will result in a lighter, but more difficult package for shippers to handle. The weight of each packaged phone has dropped from

1.4

pounds to

0.5

pounds as a result of these changes and the freight classification has worsened from

65

to

85.

Use the table below to calculate the difference in Microtech's monthly shipping charges if the company ships

10,000

phones per month.
