Your options for shipping $95,020 of machine parts from Baltimore to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, are (1) use a ship that will take 29 days at a cost of $3,240, or (2) truck the parts to Los Angeles and then ship at a total cost of $5,080. The second option will take only 22 days. You are paid via a letter of credit the day the parts arrive. Your holding cost is estimated at 30% of the value per year. If you have a third option and it costs only $4,270 and also takes 22 days, what is your most economical plan? The daily holding cost of Alternative 1 is $ 78.10. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.) The daily cost of faster shipping with Alternative 2 is $5504.86. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.)
