Question

A labor crew for placing concrete consists of one labor foreman at $26.09 per hour, one cement finisher at $29.30 per hour, 6 laborers at $24.45 per hour each, and one equipment operator at $34.5 per hour. Such a crew, called a C20 crew, can place 178 cubic yards of concrete per 8-hour day. Determine the cost per day of labor for the C20 crew. The cost per day is determined to be $ _______.

Answer 1

Total cost per day= $1,892.72

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Foreman= 26.09 per hour

Cement finisher= 29.3 per hour

Labor= 24.45 per hour

Equipment operator= 34.5 per hour

To calculate the total cost for one day of work, we need to multiply the hourly rate by the total number of hours.

Total cost per day= 26.09*8 + 29.3*8 + (24.45*6)*8 + 34.5*8

Total cost per day= $1,892.72
