    If you arent aware job prices are determined by book time i would estimate that job at 6.5 hrs at 75.00 pr hr = 487.50 plus tax all shop times come from labor guides this is how we pay for electric , labor and mortages. Business expenses are outrageous tax and more tax and more tax. You just cant do it for nothing when you are paying master mechanics 25.00 pr. Hr. Plus benefits plus vacation plus coffee breaks. Get the point.
