$260 per day

Explanation:

Handfield Manufacturing Co.

Holding cost = 35% annually = 0.35

Standard Cost = $271,590

Number of Days in a Year = 365 days

Hence;

Daily Holding Cost = (Standard Cost x Holding Cost) / Number of Days in a Year

Daily Holding Cost = ($271,590 x 0.35) / 365

Daily Holding Cost = $260 per day

Extra Driver Cost = $180

Hence the benefit of subcontractor who will team with an effective delivery of 1 day can be calculated as follows;

Daily Holding Cost - Extra Driver Cost

= $260 - $180

= $80

Therefore, the use of subcontracting the team who will drive overnight is more economical, with a daily cost of $260 per day.
