Exercise 8

Rodziewicz's tractor-trailer struck a concrete barrier and got stuck on the top. He called Waffco to get it off. When he asked how much it would cost to tow it, he was told $275. He told Waffco to tow it to the local Volvo dealer. Waffco got it off after a few minutes and towed it to its yard a few miles away. It then told Rodziewicz that he would have to pay $4,070 in labor costs, figured at 11 cents a pound, in addition to the towing charge. Will he have to pay it? Why?
