Question 4 (1 point) Eagle airlines owns and operates 3 small twin engine airplanes in a small community in eastern United States. It offers both scheduled and charter flights. It is considering expanding its fleet with a used Piper Seneca that seats 5 passengers, offered for $95K. Eagle Airlines believes it can successfully counter at $85K to $90K. An investment alternative to the fourth plane would be a fixed income instrument paying 8%. Projected financial impact of the new aircraft is calculated as follows: Total Revenue = Revenue Charters + Revenue Schedule Flights = (%charter Hours"Charter Price)+(1- %charter)*Hours*TicketPrice* Passengers*Capacity Finance Cost = (Price*%financed*Rate) TotalCost = Hours *OperatingCost+Insurance+FinanceCost Profit = Total Revenue - TotalCost The spreadsheet below contains the Base Line values for the variables in the above calculations. Perform a two- way analysis on the variables Operating costs and Capacity of Scheduled Flights and determine which investment you'd make for Operating Costs = $245 and Capacity of Scheduled Flights = 50% A D E F High B 1 Base Low 500 2 800 1000 Hours Flown Capacity 3 50% 40% 60% = (%charter*Hours *CharterPrice)+(1- %charter)*Hours*TicketPrice* Passengers"Capacity FinanceCost = (Price*%financed* Rate) TotalCost = Hours*OperatingCost+Insurance+FinanceCost Profit = Total Revenue - TotalCost The spreadsheet below contains the Base Line values for the variables in the above calculations.
