The delivery price is based on long term contracts.
The price of the supply of cardboard has increased due to a .15 fuel surcharge added to the cost.
Carl has a fixed monthly cost of $257,000 and delivers 3.3 million packages in the same time for a price of $3.24.
The variable cost of the previous package was a $1.37.

1. Find the fixed cost of one package. (total - variable cost)
2. Find the new fixed cost due to the surcharge. (apply the 0.15 fuel surcharge on the fixed cost)

From the new fixed cost, you should be able to answer any questions following up. Seeing as you didn't post the question itself, I can't guess what you are looking for exactly.
