How to BID Edging

What happens here

The next step is to calculate the labor cost per lineal foot. The presenter estimates that one person can install approximately 30 lineal feet of vinyl edging per hour. Using a target labor rate of $65 per hour per man, the labor cost per lineal foot is calculated by dividing the hourly rate by the lineal feet installed per hour ($65 / 30 lineal feet = $2.16 per lineal foot). This represents only the labor portion of the cost.

Goal: Determine the labor cost for vinyl edging installation per lineal foot
