Question - The accountant at the law firm Black and White LLP is preparing the invoice for one of the firm's clients for the month. During the month, the lawyer assigned to the client was able to charge out 25 hours. A paralegal was also able to charge out 15 hours. The lawyer's annual salary works out to $160 per hour and the paralegal's annual salary works out to $45 per hour. At the beginning of the year, the firm's management team estimated annual indirect costs to be $1,568,000. This cost was to be allocated based on 56,000 hours, which is the total direct labour hours of all of the firm's lawyers and paralegals. Black and White charges 40% over cost on all of its invoices. What is the total invoice amount to be billed to the client for the month?
