Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Locations  Cost of land     Cost of       Cost of mining      Time taken to

                                        equipment   and reclamation    mine the area

1                 $100,000      $10,000         $5,000 per day        30 days

2                 $35,000       $6,000          $4,500 per day        45 days

3                 $30,000       $7,500          $3,500 per day       120 days

4                 $40,500       $8,000          $7,000 per day        65 days

Locations  Cost of land     Cost of       Cost of mining                      Total

                                        equipment   and reclamation                    Costs

1                 $100,000      $10,000         $150,000 ($5,000 * 30)  $260,000

2                 $35,000       $6,000         $202,500 ($4,500 * 45)   $243,500

3                 $30,000       $7,500         $420,000 ($3,500 * 120)  $457,500

4                 $40,500       $8,000         $445,000 ($7,000 * 65)   $503,500

what is the question here. i think you messed up.
