Answer: Total payment to the contractor = 24000
Explanation:
Estimated contract fee = $150 000
Predetermine fee = $15000
Predetermined fee percentage = 15000/150000 = 10%
The Fee is 10% of the contract cost then the excess contract cost is shared on an 80/20 ratio. The contractor receives a 20% share
Fee for the contract ($120 000) = 120 000 x 10/100 = 12000
Share (contractor) =$ 120000 x 20/100 = 24000
Total payment to the contractor = 24000
