The message seems a bit different from what I'd expect, but I think
it's a matter of using final. Final for a primitive means you can't
change it (and if it were an object, it means you can't reassign to a
different object, but you can change the internal state of it). So,
probably define totalCost as a member variable of your class and drop
the final keyword.
