Well, according to the labor rate on my works computer it's:

2.5 Hours to replace the compressor
2.3 hours to replace the expansion valve
1.7 hours to replace the Drier
1.5 hours to flush the system + flush

so 8 hours total labor times whatever your local labor rate is.. That
doesn't include flushing the system, or the prices of the parts/freon
etc. The only part my company has is the drier for $18.. I don't have
prices on the other parts.
