Accounting

Morgan wants to have a new roof built. She has contacted three companies. All companies have very similar prices in terms of labor
and materials. Company 1 offered a material loading percentage of 68%. Company 2 offered a percentage of 54%. And Company 3
offered a percentage of 38%. Which one should Morgan choose?
Company 1, because if the labor and materials are the same for all three, then she needs to find the company with the
highest material loading percentage in order to get the most affordable price.
Company 3, because if the labor and materials are the same for all three, then she needs to find the company with the
lowest material loading percentage in order to get the most affordable price.
Company 2 or 3, because any material loading percentage over 55% is considered to be too high, regardless of what the
cost of materials and labor amount to.
