Jeffrey is the owner-operator of DSPLLC. He
currently has 18 full-time employees working 40
hours a week at an hourly rate of $15.35 and
leases 9 vehicles each at $327 monthly. Amazon
recently increased his route count, during peak,
which lasts 3 months/12 weeks, and Jeffrey is
now in need of hiring additional employees and
leasing more vehicles during this period. If
Amazon suggests a 2:1 ratio of employees to
vehicles, and Jeffrey increased his team to 32
employees and 16 vehicles. What % increase to
his expenses for labor and leasing does he need
to anticipate for peak?
