You have been working for home-building companies for a number of years. You enjoy construction work, and now you want to start your own home-building company that you will run yourself You quit your previous job that had been paying $40,000 per year. You have $40,000 in your savings account that you withdraw to start this company. The savings account had been paying you 5% interest. Because the $40,000 from your savings is not enough to start the company, you also borrow $2,300,000 from the bank. (The bank manager is willing to loan you such a large amount because he knows of your reputation and experience in the home-building industry) You use the money to hire workers and buy the tools, machinery, and raw materials with which you will build houses. The cost per worker is $20,000 per year. In your first year, you plan to hire 48 workers to do the construction work, which means that the annual labor cost of your company will be $960,000 (48 x $20,000), With 48 workers, your company can build seven houses. You must also buy raw materials-land, wood, nails, plasterboard, and so forth. Each house requires $20,000 worth of raw materials. The cost of raw materials for seven houses is $140,000 (7 x $20,000). Finally, the bank charges 6% interest on your loan. The interest cost is $138,000 (6% of$2.300,000). 1.5. What are the total fixed costs for your construction company? A. $960,000 B. $42,000 c. $180,000 D. $140,000 E. $1,280,000
