Ed has a summer beach cottage that he has owned for many years. the cottage is valued at $ 75 comma 000. this year, ed spends $400 on paint and $550 on trees, and then paints the exterior of the cottage and plants the trees himself. if he had hired a professional painter, it would have cost $1 comma 000 to paint the cottage (not including the cost of paint), and if he had hired a professional landscaper, it would have cost $450 (not including the cost of the trees) to do the planting.
