    The estimated value of job 173 are as follow.
    DM? 5 meters @ $20 per metre

    I assume (although you haven’t said) that you are expecting me to give you the answer!
    We don’t provide answers to test questions – unless you were set this as a test then you must have an answer in the same book in which you found the question. (If not, then you are using the wrong book – you should be using a Revision Kit from one of the ACCA approved publishers).
    Ask about whatever it is in the answer that you are not clear about, and then I will explain.

    However, this question could not possibly be asked in Paper FM – it is not in the syllabus for Paper FM.

    It is a very basic Paper MA (Paper F2) question, and how to do it is explained in detail in my free lectures for Paper F2.
