During the early morning hours, customers arrive at a branch
post office at an average rate of 20 per hour (Poisson), while
clerks can handle transactions in an average time (exponential) of
2 minutes each. Assume one clerk in the system. If clerk cost is
$30 per hour and customer waiting time represents a "cost" of $20
per hour. Compute the total hourly cost for this system. Select
