Excersise 7-2: Harley Davidson

Harley has decided to implement Just In Time (JIT) at the motorcycle assembly plant. As part of this initiative it has reduced the number of engines loaded on each truck to 100. If each truck trip still costs $1,000, how does this decision impact annual costs at Harley? What should the cost of each truck be if a load of 100 engines is to be optimal for Harley?
