Answer:

total cost = 556.39

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets calculate the shipping and handling costs

s&h = cost * shipping and handling rate

The rate is 29% = .29 in decimal form

      = 431.31* .29

   = 125.0799

Rounding to the nearest cent

   = 125.08

The total cost is the cost of the item plus the shipping and handling

total cost = 431.31+125.08

total cost = 556.39
