A Milton approved change order is $25,100, and $19,300 has already been billed. What approved amount remains unbilled?

Correct Answer

A) $5,800

Approved unbilled amount equals approved change-order value less billed-to-date.

Answer Options
A
$5,800
B
$8,300
C
$44,400
D
$2,500

Why This Is the Correct Answer

Approved unbilled amount equals approved change-order value less billed-to-date.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

Option B: $8,300

$8,300 is above the supported result for unbilled change order; it likely adds scope or money the rule does not allow.

Option C: $44,400

$44,400 is above the supported result for unbilled change order; it likely adds scope or money the rule does not allow.

Option D: $2,500

$2,500 is below the supported result for unbilled change order; it likely omits part of the approved scope, cap, credit, or holdback.

Memory Technique

Billing Administrator contract math: approved scope is the ruler for unbilled change order.

Reference Hint
