EXHIBIT "A"

Exhibit "A" is a summary of statistical data relating to fourteen (14) Navajo Housing Authority Projects. All these projects have been constructed using a competitive bidding method of contract award. The projects being used as a basis for determining the required increase of housing prototype costs covers a full range of site locations and conditions, bedroom mixtures, and project sizes. The chart compares the contracts previously awarded to today's cost. The following is a brief description of each data column:

a.

b.

Column one (1) lists the individual project by city, state and
H.U.D. assigned number.

Column two (2) is the date the construction contract was awarded.
c. Column three (3) gives the housing units by bedroom breakdowns.
d. Column four (4) indicates the total number of housing units in the
project.

e.

Column five (5)
to urban areas.

refers to the location and project size in relationship See Exhibit "H" for definition of remote areas.

f. Column six (6) shows the calculated factor for cost adjust. The factor varies from project to project. It is the factor of today's cost compared to previous (yesterday) awards. See Exhibit "D" for calculating method.

g. Column seven (7) is the actual dwelling unit and equipment cost adjusted for inflation (Exhibit "D") from the date of construction contract execution to October, 1979.

h. Column eight (8) is found by multiplying the factor in column six (6) by actual cost amount in column seven (7).

1. Column nine (9) is project cost based on the published June 1979 housing prototype cost.

j. Column ten (10) shows the prototype comparison adjustment factor to October 1979. The highlighted projects would be awardable if what this study indicates is true.

EXHIBIT "B"

This exhibit is divided into three parts: Part one (1) deals with calculating dwelling areas for the establishment of square foot comparison. Part two (2) is the calculation method for determining the dwelling area cost for the sample project (Kaibito). Part three (3) is a H.U.D. form entitled "Schedule of Amounts for Contract Payments". This form shows the contractor's breakdown of project costs which are used in this study.
