Explanation / Answer

a) Labor cost for a one-person boat manufactured at State A plant :

Labor cost for a one-person boat manufactured at State A plant = 9.86 x 0.3 + 13.94 x 0.4 + 16.16 x 1.3 = 2.958 + 5.576 + 21.008 = $29.54 = 29 dollars and 54 cents.

b)

Labor cost for a four-person boat manufactured at State B plant = 17.72 x 1.7 + 18.44 x 1.3 + 18.48 x 1.5 = 30.124 + 23.972 + 27.72 = $81.82 = 81 dollars and 82 cents.
