service overhead costs 280,000.00 Marketing expenses 120,000.00 General and administrative expenses 170,000.00 Minimum profit 90,000.00 Cost of assets employed 500,000.00 Anson believes that his company will inspect 100,000 automobiles per year.

B) ($1,203,000.00 ÷ 100,000 ) + [($1,203,000.00 ÷ 100,000 ) x ($90,000 ÷ $1,203,000.00)].
C) ($1,203,000.00 ÷ 100,000 ) + [($500,000 ÷ 100,000 ) x 0.1875].
