Question

You estimate that your kitchen remodeling project will require an electrician for 30 hours, a plumber for 33 hours and a carpenter for 18 hours . If the electrician charges $34.75 per hour , the plumber charges $30.00 per hour and the carpenter charges $28.65 per hour, what is the expected cost of labor for the project ?

Answer 1

The expected cost of labor for the project is $2548.20

Explanation:

The electrician charges $34.75 per hour if you hire him for 30 hours, you would have to pay $1042.50 in total.

The plumber charges $30 per hour if you hire him for 33 hours, you would have to pay $990 in total.

The carpenter charges $28.64 per hour if you hire him for 18 hours, you would have to pay $515.52 in total.

($34.75*30) + ($30*33) + ($28.65*18) =

$1042.50 + $990 + $515.52 = $2548.20
