Case Understanding

Airways delivery is a courier company. Which has branches all over India with the target to deliver all the pin codes. However, the company board decided to open a new division of the business that is “hyper-local delivery space” and want to conduct local delivery through drones. According to the Indian rule, all flying objects in India need to take permission from DGCA. The company has all the necessary permits so, companies conducted trials beyond the visual line of sight BVLOP and teams are successful in testing deliveries from drones. The company started its venture as a short-range drone-based service because of the high purchase cost of long-range drones. The company insists various pharma, food deliveries, and other such have tested drone delivery successfully and looking forward to exploring more business ideas for cost-effective cargo deliveries. From inspiring radical innovation in this sector, the company wants to drone services to add value to the end-users. It is an extension of the company’s current services portfolios.

Sharing office space with the parent entity

 

30,000(per month)

3,60,000

 

Note: Assuming division sharing office contributes Rs. 30,000 monthly.

 

Total cost (year) = 1,48,00,000

Hence, to achieve a break-even point we have to generate revenue equal to the total cost incurred.

To generate revenue equal to total cost we have to conduct 23472 deliveries   in this year.

To minimize the cost and increase the number of deliveries we should prefer short range drone becouse cost of long range drone is 3.2 times higher than short range drone.

Conclusion
The company can reach their break even in a year when they are using deliveries as per any categories or they can use more short- range drones because the cost of long -range drone is 3.2 times more than short- range drone. The revenue incurred from short -range drone is more than long range drone.
