One millisecond is 0.001 of a second.
One millisecond is 0.001 of a second. The costs for a single run of a computer program are $1.07 for operating-system overhead, $0.019 per millisecond of computer time, and $4.35 for the mounting of a data tape. What is the total of these three costs for 1 run of a program that requires 1.5 seconds of computer time ?
Answer/Solution
$33.92
Steps/Work
Operating system overhead for 1 run = 1.07 $
Mounting of data tape = 4.35$
Cost per 1 millisecond of computer time = .019 $
Total cost of 1 run of a program that requires 1.5 seconds of computer time
= 1.07 + (.019*1500) + 4.35
=1.07 + 28.5 + 4.35
= 33.92$
Answer C
Mounting of data tape = 4.35$
Cost per 1 millisecond of computer time = .019 $
Total cost of 1 run of a program that requires 1.5 seconds of computer time
= 1.07 + (.019*1500) + 4.35
=1.07 + 28.5 + 4.35
= 33.92$
Answer C
