b. A progress claim for month 3, using the schedule of contract works given above and your calculations of the ‘Value Complete $’ column you worked out in Q1a.
You will need to refer to the Project Information on the following pages to help you complete the progress claim. Your progress claim is to reflect the relevant clauses of the contract you chose to use in Q4 of Assessment 1 for CPCCBC4003A regarding date of progress claims and the terms of payment. NB: If the contract you chose for this assessment did not include a clause for retention, you are to assume that it is a requirement. You are to allow for the standard retention deduction of “10% of the progress claim up to 5% of the contract sum”.
Please show your work how to calculate in typing and how you get the answers.
