Speedy Parcel Service operates a fleet of delivery trucks in a large metropolitan area. A careful study by the company’s cost analyst has determined that if a truck is driven 120,000 miles during a year, the average operating cost is 11.6 cents per mile. If a truck is driven only 80,000 miles during a year, the average operating cost increases to 13.6 cents per mile.

Required:

1. and 2. Using the high-low method, estimate the variable and fixed cost elements of the annual cost of truck operation. (Round the "Variable cost per mile" to 3 decimal places.)

3. If a truck were driven 100,000 miles during a year, what total cost would you expect to be incurred?
