A crew spends 23 hours on a documented extra at $92 per hour. What labor amount should be shown before other agreed charges?
Correct Answer
B) $2,116.
Labor is 23 x $92 = $2,116.
Why This Is the Correct Answer
Labor is 23 x $92 = $2,116.
Why the Other Options Are Wrong
Option A: $21,160.
$21,160 misplaces the decimal point, giving ten times the correct amount. The correct calculation is 23 x 92 = 2,116.
Option C: $212.
$212 misplaces the decimal point, giving one tenth of the correct amount. The correct calculation is 23 x 92 = 2,116.
Option D: $115.
$115 adds 23 and 92 instead of multiplying. The correct calculation is 23 x 92 = 2,116.
