Isaiah Company uses a regression equation to analyze the behavior of its transportation costs (T) as function of travel time (H). They developed the following equation using two years' observation with a related coefficient of 85: T = 100,000 + P50H If 500 hours of travel time were logged in one period, the related point estimate of total transportation costs would be __________ 121,250 106,250 125,000 110,000
