Answer:

$3,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Company A bid $595,000 for materials and plants and $204,000 for labor.

  • Total = $595,000 + $204,000 = $799,000

Company B bid $660,000 for materials and plants and $136,000 for labor.

  • Total = $660,000 + $136,000 = $796,000

The difference:

  • $799,000 - $796,000 = $3,000
