Methodology
1. labor_cost = total_labor_hours × labor_cost_per_hour
2. materials_cost = material_supplier_cost
3. direct_cost = labor + materials
4. contingency = direct_cost × contingency_pct
5. overhead = (direct + contingency) × overhead_pct
6. total_cost = direct + contingency + overhead
7. customer_price = total_cost / (1 − target_margin)
