Cost of concrete footings & other work

I think I'm getting a ripped off estimate.

I'm told I need 130 cubic yards for footings. I'm told to

1. Dig the trenches its $10,000
2. provide and place steel in the trenches it is $30,000 (this seems crazy to me)
3. Provide the concrete is $17,500 ($133 a yard, really high)
4. Pour the concrete costs $25 a yard or $7,500 (also seems high just for pouring.

Also, for flatwork, they're quoting me by the yard for 4" slabs. For 1st floor concrete floors (above grade) they're quoting me 150 a yard for flatwork. For basement slab on grade flatwork they're quoting me 100 a yard.
