The current lecture cost is $10

The current workshop costs $ 24

The current examination cost $60

The total cost for level one is (10+24+60) = $94

The cost of level 2 will be:

Lecture cost was increased by 20%, new cost will be:

120/100*10

=$12

The workshop cost was increased by 10 %, the new cost will be:

110/100*24=$26.4

The examination cost remained the same. The new total cost for stage 2 will be:

(12+26.4+60) = $98.4
