\text{Selling Price} = 109

\text{Tax Rate} = 0.0825

\text{Total Tax} = \text{Selling Price} \times \text{Tax Rate}

\text{Total Tax} = 109 \times 0.0825

\text{Total Tax} = 8.9925

Add the total tax to the selling price:

\text{Total Cost} = \text{Selling Price} + \text{Total Tax}

\text{Total Cost} = 109 + 8.9925

Final result after rounding to two decimal places:

\text{Total Cost}\approx117.99
