In Review Mode, you receive the correct answer and explanation immediately after answering each question. It is designed for learning, not just scoring, so you can correct misunderstandings before moving to the next question.

Q1.A guaranteed maximum price contract closes out on the figures below, and the contract shares any saving against the ceiling.

$\begin{array}{l|c} \hline \textbf{Item} & \textbf{Amount} \\ \hline \text{Guaranteed maximum price} & \$10{,}000{,}000 \\ \text{Audited cost of the work} & \$8{,}650{,}000 \\ \text{Contractor's fee} & \$750{,}000 \\ \text{Contractor's share of savings} & 25\% \\ \hline \end{array}$

What total amount is payable to the contractor?
- A. $\$9{,}400{,}000$
- B. $\$9{,}550{,}000$ ✓ Correct answer
- C. $\$9{,}850{,}000$
- D. $\$10{,}000{,}000$
Explanation
The saving is what the ceiling exceeds the contractor's actual entitlement, so cost and fee are added before anything is shared:

$E = C + F$

$E = 8{,}650{,}000 + 750{,}000 = \$9{,}400{,}000$

The saving against the ceiling then follows, and the contractor takes its stated share:

$S = GMP - E = 10{,}000{,}000 - 9{,}400{,}000 = \$600{,}000$

$P = E + 0.25S = 9{,}400{,}000 + 150{,}000 = \$9{,}550{,}000$

The $\$9{,}400{,}000$ option stops at cost and fee and forgets the share, and $\$9{,}850{,}000$ awards the contractor $75\%$ of the saving, reversing the split.
