Answer:
The BJ Electrical Company
The BJ Electrical Company should hire:
8 master electricians and
22 apprentices
in order to accomplish the project and still meet the contract safety requirements.
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of workers needed = 30
Class of workers:
Master electrician, with per week salary = $750 per worker
Apprentices, with per week salary = $350 per worker
Number of inspection hours required from each master electrician = 3 hours
Total inspection hours for the project = 25 hours
Average number of master electricians needed = 25/3 = 8.333 = 8
Number of each type of worker needed:
Master electricians = 8
Apprentices = 22 (30 - 8)
Cost to be incurred for workers:
Master electricians = $6,000 (8 * $750)
Apprentices = 7,700 (22 * $350)
Total labor cost = $13,700
