The school cafeteria serves tacos every 60 and cheeseburgers every eighth day.If tacos and cheeseburgers are both on today's menu, and how many days will the next serve tacos and cheeseburgers on the same day?

120 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Tacos are served every 60 days.

Cheeseburgers are served every 8 days.

Since, both Cheeseburgers and Tacos are served today, the next day on which both will be served is gotten by finding the Lowest Common Multiple of 60 and 8.

To find the LCM,

First, we express the numbers as a product of their prime factors.

60= 2X2X3X5=2²X3X5

8=2X2X2=2³

Next, we take each of the term with the highest power and multiply.

L.C.M = 2³X3X5=120

After 120 days, Cheeseburgers and Tacos will be served on the same day.

Cost of Land & Building

This cost element is included if the land and building are provided by the 3PL and not the buyer.

Incase the land and building is acquired by the 3PL, the cost of land and building may be amortized over the life of the building or as per industry standards (average 10-12 years) and proportionate monthly costs can be added. One needs to ensure that the costs are realistic and nearer to market rates for rentals.

Incase the land and building is rented by the 3PL, the cost of monthly rental along with the cost of funds for security deposit may be added to the costs.

All costs would be worked out for the term of contract period with annual escalations considered annually.

Infrastructure Cost

Cost of acquisition of all infrastructure including racks, MHE, Charging equipment, dock levelers and any other equipment including office equipment are itemized and amortized over the contract period or over the shelf life of the equipment as the case may be, to arrive at monthly cost of infrastructure.
