Let's break down the costs for the training event:

1. **Hourly Employees' Wages**:
   - There are 4 hourly employees.
   - Each employee makes $12/hour.
   - The training lasts 8 hours.
   - Total wage cost = $ 4 \times 12 \times 8 = 384 $.

2. **Manager's Cost**:
   - The manager earns $60,000 annually.
   - Assuming 52 weeks per year and 40 hours per week, the hourly wage of the manager is:
     \[
     \text{Manager's hourly wage} = \frac{60,000}{52 \times 40} = 28.85
     \]
   - The manager works for 8 hours during the training.
   - Manager's cost for the training = $ 28.85 \times 8 = 230.80 $.

3. **Assistant Manager's Cost**:
   - The assistant manager earns $48,000 annually.
   - Following the same calculation for the assistant manager's hourly wage:
     \[
     \text{Assistant Manager's hourly wage} = \frac{48,000}{52 \times 40} = 23.08
     \]
   - The assistant manager also works for 8 hours.
   - Assistant manager's cost for the training = $ 23.08 \times 8 = 184.64 $.

4. **Materials Cost**:
   - Materials cost $30 per person.
   - There are 4 hourly employees.
   - Total materials cost = $ 30 \times 4 = 120 $.

5. **Food Cost**:
   - Food costs $20 per person.
   - Total food cost = $ 20 \times 4 = 80 $.

### Total Training Cost:
Now, we sum all the costs:
\[
\text{Total cost} = 384 + 230.80 + 184.64 + 120 + 80 = 999.44
\]

The total cost of the training event is **$999.44**.

Would you like more details or further clarification? Here are some related questions for practice:

1. How would the total cost change if the training lasted 6 hours instead of 8 hours?
2. What would the total cost be if 5 employees were trained instead of 4?
3. How much more would it cost if the employees made $15/hour instead of $12/hour?
4. If the assistant manager's annual salary was $50,000, how would that affect the total cost?
5. How does the cost of materials affect the total if they increased to $40 per person?

**Tip**:

You organize an 8-hour training for 4 hourly, local employees. The training is led by the manager who earns a salary of $60,000, and by an assistant manager who earns $48,000. Materials cost is $30/person and food is $20/person. If the hourly employees make $12/hour, what is the cost of this training event?
