He is open 16*5=<<16*5=80>>80 hours a week
So he pays each of his employees 12.5*80=$<<12.5*80=1000>>1000 per week
Since there are two employees, he pays them in total 2 * $1000 = $<<2*1000=2000>>2000 per week.
The utilities cost 1200*.2=$<<1200*.2=240>>240
So his total cost per week is 1200+2000+240=$<<1200+2000+240=3440>>3440
