Calculation Method
The total cost is calculated by summing up the base cost, screen cost, material cost, and labor cost. The base cost is determined by the area of the lanai (length x width) multiplied by the base cost per square foot. The screen cost is calculated by the screen area (perimeter x height) multiplied by the screen cost per square foot. The material cost is the area multiplied by the material cost per square foot. The labor cost is determined by the labor hours multiplied by the labor cost per hour.
Limitations
