Health Costs. Assume that you have a (relatively simple) health insurance plan with the following provisions:
Annual deductible is $500. Insurance company pays 100% of all costs after deductible and co-payments.
Office visits require a co-payment of $25.
Emergency room visits have a $200 co-payment.
Surgical operations have a $1000 co-payment.
You pay a monthly premium of $350.

Tower Distributors provides logistical services to local manufacturers. Tower picks up products from the manufacturers, takes them to its distribution center, and then assembles shipments to retailers in the region. Tower needs to build a new distribution center; consequently, it needs to make a decision on how many trucks to use. The monthly amortized capital cost of ownership is $2,100 per truck. Operating variable costs are $1 per mile for each truck owned by Tower. If capacity is exceeded in any month, Tower can rent trucks at $2 per mile. Each truck Tower owns can be used 10,000 miles per month. The requirements for the trucks, however, are uncertain. Managers have estimated the following probabilities for several possible demand levels and corresponding fleet sizes.Requirements (miles/month) 100,000 150,000 200,000 250,000Fleet Size (trucks) 10 15 20 25Probability 0.2…

- (Net present value calculation) Carson Trucking is considering whether to expand its regional service center in Mohab, UT. The expansion requires the expenditure of $9,000,000 on new service equipment and would generate annual net cash inflows from reduced costs of operations equal to $2,000,000 per year for each of the next 9 years. In year 9 the firm will also get back a cash flow equal to the salvage value of the equipment, which is valued at $0.8 million. Thus, in year 9 the investment cash inflow totals $2,800,000.
