The drywall stocking worksheet shows a unit-price change adds 58 square feet of drywall repair at $47 per square foot. What amount should be added?

Correct Answer

A) $2,726.

The added amount is quantity times unit price: 58 x $47 = $2,726.

Answer Options
A
$2,726.
B
$2,350 total.
C
$2,820 total.
D
$3,120 total.

Why This Is the Correct Answer

The added amount is quantity times unit price: 58 x $47 = $2,726.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

Option B: $2,350 total.

$2,350 total. is below the supported result for unit price change calculation; it likely omits part of the approved scope, cap, credit, or holdback.

Option C: $2,820 total.

$2,820 total. is above the supported result for unit price change calculation; it likely adds scope or money the rule does not allow.

Option D: $3,120 total.

$3,120 total. is above the supported result for unit price change calculation; it likely adds scope or money the rule does not allow.

Memory Technique

Checking Signed contract math: approved scope is the ruler for unit price change.

Reference Hint

Study anchor (closed-book): memorize Unit price change calculation from CSLB 2026 Law Book; CSLB Home Improvement Contracts / B&P Code Section 7159 written change order requirements; know the rule or calculation trigger without relying on exam-room lookup.
