Answer 1

Answer:$34,155.27

Step-by-step explanation:

Item 1:

Total wages paid to employees=$5,897.64

Item2:

Refreshment and lunch per person for 4 days

=$45.50×4

=$3,640

Item 3:

Instructor charged $500.00 per day for 4 days

=$500.00×4

=$2000

Item 4:

Supplies and equipment per person=$8.00

There are 20 employees

=$8.00×20

=$160.00

Item 5:

Travel expenses for total employees (20)=$22,457.63

Total cost of seminar= Totals of item 1+item 2+item 3+item 4+ item 5

=$5,897.64+$3,640+$2000+$160.00+$22,457.63

=$34,155.27

Answer 2

Total wages $ 5,897.64
refreshments and lunch = $ 45.50 × 4× 20 = $3640
Instructor = $500 × 4 = $2000
Supplies and equipment = $ 8 × 20 = $ 160
Travel expenses = $22,457.63
therefore, the total cost of the training will be
$5897.64 + $3640 +$2000+$160 +$22,457.63 = $34,155.27
