Identifying the indirect fixed cost of the charter service service for a particular one of many such charters this month would be
Problem #4
If one were trying to decide whether to operate or not to fly and unscheduled round trip charter flight, what would be the total direct fixed costs and variable costs of the flight?
To get the total costs youd have to add up the guaranteed flights and the possible cancellation flights Total costs would be 1000$ and variable cost would be based upon that.
Problem #5 Charter Contracts are negotiable to receiver many contracts….
Problem #5 >>Answer Yes I believe the airline should accept a charter flight proposal from a group that offers to guarantee the sale of 90 seats over 250, because the risk varies highly because its only 90 seats and realistically those 90 seats will be a guaranteed buy opposed to 250. So it will be a great advantage to the airline to do that plus sales increase.

    Continental Airlines

    The short-term solution of decreasing flight capacity by 11% affects many factors in the operation of Continental Airlines. At first, it seems that a reduced number of flights and available seat miles would only benefit an airline that is failing to fill its flights and is losing out on profits because of it. On the other hand though, one must look deeper into the effects to find which costs are directly related to a reduction in flight capacity and which costs will largely be unaffected by the proposed solution. After examining the ten operating costs that Continental incurs throughout quarterly operation, I concluded that some of these costs are fixed or would not have a reaction to changes in flight capacity. In contrast, there are a few costs that are directly related to flight capacity and would see a large reduction with the cut in capacity. Table 1 below shows the ten costs that are incurred, details about each cost, and how they vary with a change in flight capacity.…
