Astro Industries of Minneapolis, MN, makes weekly shipments to 20 customers in the Dallas area. Each customer’s order weighs, on average, 1,500 pounds. A direct truck shipment from Minneapolis to Dallas costs $1,800. The maximum load per truck is 40,000 pounds.

c) How high would the warehousing cost (currently at $75 per hundred-weight) have to be before break-bulk warehousing is no more attractive than direct shipments?
