Answer all the questions.
1 Ernst makes chairs.
(a) The total cost of making a chair is $250.
Total cost = cost of materials + $26 for each hour worked
Ernst works for 6 1 hours to make a chair.

(b) Ernst sells the chairs to a shop.
The shop makes 24% profit when they sell a chair for $396.80 .
Calculate the amount the shop pays Ernst for a chair.
$ ................................................. [2]
(c) In a sale the shop reduces the price, $396.80, of each chair by 3% each day until it is sold.
Find the number of days until the price first goes below $200.
