Answer: $150

Explanation:

Previous vehicles daily rental = $100.

the new vehicle delivery capacity daily = 1500 packages.

Price per packages delivered daily by the new vehicle = $.10 cents.

The new vehicle daily remmitance

Therefore;

Package delivered daily × price per packages

= 1500 × $.10

= $150.

Considering that the new vehicle won't affect anyother cost it would be able to remit $50 more daily than the other vehicles.
