To find the total cost of the playground slide, we need to calculate the cost of shipping and handling and add it to the price of the slide.

The cost of shipping and handling is 16% of $946.01.

To find 16% of a number, we can multiply the number by 0.16.

So, the cost of shipping and handling is 0.16 * $946.01 = $151.36.

Now, we can find the total cost by adding the price of the slide and the cost of shipping and handling.

Total cost = $946.01 + $151.36 = $1097.37.

Rounded to the nearest cent, the total cost of the playground slide, including shipping and handling, is $1097.37.
