Alyeski Tours operates day tours of coastal glaciers in Alaska on its tour boat the Blue Glacier. Management has identified two cost
drivers-the number of cruises and the number of passengers-that it uses in its budgeting and performance reports. The company
publishes a schedule of day cruises that it may supplement with special sailings if there is sufficient demand. Up to 85 passengers can
be accommodated on the tour boat. Data concerning the company's cost formulas appear below:
Vessel operating costs.

$3,000
$ 5,100
$ 3,400
$ 40.00
Cost per
Passenger
$ 3.10
$ 1.50
For example, vessel operating costs should be $6,700 per month plus $473.00 per cruise plus $3.10 per passenger. The company's
sales should average $28.00 per passenger. In July, the company provided 56 cruises for a total of 3,050 passengers.
