Step 1
It is given that the total volume of the slab is 2.07 cubic yards and the volume estimated by the
contractor is 3 cubic yards. This means that the concrete is wasted as the contractor wrongly
estimated the volume of the slab.
We have to evaluate the cost of the concrete which is wasted when the cost of concrete is given
to be $119.42 per cubic yards.
