Sorta Sorted Strings

For each line in the input, output its Sorta Sorted Score.

The Sorta Sorted Score of a string is the sum of the costs of its bytes according to these rules:

Each byte which is greater than the preceding byte costs 1. This includes the first byte of the string.
Each byte which is equal to the preceding byte costs 10.
Each byte which is less than the preceding byte costs 50.

Your score on this challenge, instead of being the raw byte length of your source code, will be the Sorta Sorted Score of your source code.

In order to make this scoring scheme work, please calculate your Sorta Sorted Score and pad your solution with an appropriate amount of spaces to give yourself that score. For example, if your source is abdcdd, append 58 spaces: 49 spaces for the “c” plus 9 spaces for the last “d”.

NOTE: Input lines will consist entirely of printable ASCII.
