A contractor wants to add a specialty classification to their existing license. What is the additional fee for each specialty classification under Alabama law?
Correct Answer
B) $100
Alabama charges an additional $100 fee for each specialty classification added to an existing contractor license.
Why This Is the Correct Answer
Alabama contractor licensing law charges an additional $100 fee for each specialty classification added to an existing contractor license. This fee is paid at the time of application for the additional classification.
Why the Other Options Are Wrong
Option A: $125
$125 is not the Alabama statutory fee for adding a specialty classification. This amount is higher than the correct $100 fee.
Option C: $50
$50 is less than the required $100 fee. While it might seem like a reasonable amount, it does not match the Alabama statutory requirement.
Option D: $75
$75 is not the correct amount. The Alabama fee is $100 per specialty classification, not $75.
Memory Technique
Specialty classification = $100 even. Think: 'One specialty, one hundred dollars.' Round numbers are easier to remember — $100 is the clean, round number for each specialty added.
