Prest Metal Products manufactures and sells various products. The products are manufactured at one of a few plants
(depending on the product) and then shipped to a distribution center for eventual delivery to customers. The Auburn
Distribution Center (ADC) of Prest Metal Products handles a subset of Prest Products. The products handled by the ADC
are fairly similar in size and weight and differ primarily in features that do not affect handling or packaging.
When the sales staff at Prest receives an order, they send it to the appropriate distribution center to fill (collect units and
package for shipping) and ship the units to the customer. A single order may consist of one (although unusual) or more
units. Regardless of the number of units in the order, ADC has to follow certain steps to process the order, such as
verifying the customer's address and credit information, review the order for errors, and so on. The ADC is also
responsible for following up on any complaints from the customer about problems with the order.
The ADC expects to distribute 250,000 units of products next month. As a part of the normal planning process at ADC, the
center controller has classified next month's expected operating costs (excluding costs of the distributed product) as fixed
or variable (with respect to units shipped) as follows.
