Your company is bidding on a religious building. You estimated that its construction costs are $1,865,400, which includes project overhead. Your company marks up all construction costs five percent to cover main-office overhead. Your boss wants to make a three percent profit on the construction costs (excluding main-office overhead). What is your company’s bid for the project?

What will be an ideal response?


The bid is calculated as follows:

Main-office overhead = $1,865,400 × 0.05 = $93,270

Profit = $1,865,400 × 0.03 = $55,962

Bid = $1,865,400 + $93,270 + $55,962 = $2,014,632
