Material cost per product from the bill of materials

The ask

Sent verbatim as the prompt. The agent works in a copy of the workspace below and sees nothing else.

Our accountant needs the material cost of each product we sell. Work it out from the BOM export and the price list and give me assembly_costs.xlsx, built so I can change a price later. Dale's email has the details.
