Actual Cost BILLING POLICIES Our policy is to bill for our services based on the standard hourly rates of the staff member assigned, multiplied by the time required to perform the client-related tasks, plus the direct expenses as described above. In implementing this policy, we adhere to the following practices: • It is our standard practice to e-mail invoices to our clients, although hard copies of invoices can be sent to clients on request. • We round to the nearest one-quarter hour (e.g., if two hours and 55 minutes are spent on a task, it is recorded as three hours, if two hours and 5 minutes are spent on a task, it is recorded as two hours). A minimum charge of one-quarter hour is charged for any client work performed in a day. • We do not markup out-of-pocket expenses; however, we may charge administrative or professional time related to the provision of the goods and services associated with these charges. • If subcontractors are used, HF&H reserves the right to charge a 10% markup. • Mileage fees are based on the round-trip distance from the point of origin. • If a client's change to a previously scheduled meeting results in penalties being assessed by a third party (e.g., airline cancellation fee), then the client will bear the cost of these penalties. While no minimum fee for a consulting engagement has been established, it is unlikely (given the nature of our services) that we can gain an understanding of a client's particular Docusign Envelope ID: D0CB4BF3-FEDC-4F7D-95C4-0EB4DA05C18D
