Gallatin Carpet Cleaning is a small, family-owned business operating out of Bozeman, Montana. For its services, the company has always charged a flat fee per hundred square feet of carpet cleaned. The current fee is $22.60 per hundred square feet. However, there is some question about whether the company is actually making any money on jobs for some customersparticularly those located on remote ranches that require considerable travel time.

3. The company recently completed a 4 hundred square foot carpet-cleaning job at the Flying N rancha 58.00-mile round-trip journey from the companys offices in Bozeman. Compute the cost of this job using the activity-based costing system. (Round your intermediate and final answers to 2 decimal places.)
