Schools-2009 MRc5:Regional Materials

Which cost of materials to use?

Dear all, The retail price of a certain product is $15 (anyone can buy it from the supplier for $15). However, the contractor has a special discount: he buys this product for $10, but he bills the client $15). When calculating the percentage of regional materials by cost, do I have to consider the $10 or $15? When I say the contractor bills the client $15, this means that the BOQ states $15. Many thanks, The LEED Reference Guide states that "Materials costs include all expenses to deliver the material to the project site."

George, the cost to track is the cost to the project. In this example, that is $15.
