Adjusting the Gross Amount of Additional Home Office Overhead Compensation for any <br />additional contribution for Overhead received by the Contractor on any Change Orders that are <br />being presented and resolved concurrently with the subject calculation for Unabsorbed and/or <br />Extended Home Office Overhead. The necessary adjustment would be to reduce the Gross <br />Amount of Additional Home Office Overhead Compensation by any additional compensation for <br />Overhead included in any direct cost claims being resolved concurrently with any claim for <br />Extended and/or Unabsorbed Home Office Overhead. <br />Contractor shall not receive compensation for cost of use of equity capital. <br />9.6. FORCE ACCOUNT <br />If Work or materials are to be paid for by Force Account, payment amounts will be determined and <br />Contractor shall contemporaneously prepare, keep and maintain records segregated and allocated by time, <br />location and item of Work in compliance with this subsection. Such records must be contemporaneously <br />countersigned by the Owner or the Owner's Representative (or its designee). Any records not <br />countersigned by the Owner or Owner's Representative shall be excluded from the calculation of payment <br />under this subsection. <br />The payments provided for herein shall be full payment for all Work done on a Force Account basis. The <br />payment shall be deemed to cover all expenses of every nature, kind, and description, including all <br />Overhead expenses, profit, occupational tax and any other Federal or State revenue acts, premiums on <br />public liability and property damage insurance policies, and for the use of small tools and equipment for <br />which no rental is allowed. <br />No Contract Claim for Force Account shall be allowed except upon written order by the Owner's <br />Representative for Extra Work prior to the performance of the Extra Work.

Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA), and <br />d. State Unemployment Tax Act (SUTA) <br />A Weighted Wage Rate shall be computed for each classification of labor used. This rate shall <br />reflect the Contractor's actual cost. It shall neither exceed what is normally paid to comparable <br />labor nor fall below the minimum required by 7.1. WAGES OF EMPLOYEES. If the Owner's <br />Representative authorizes overtime, the Weighted Wage Rate shall be determined on the same <br />basis. <br />2. Travel Allowance and Subsistence.
