A construction project purchases the following wood products. What percentage can be applied to Materials and Resources Credit, Certified Wood?

Material ; Cost
FSC Pure (100%) ; $45,000;
FSC Mixed (50%) ; $75,000;
FSC Recycled (75%) ; $65,000;
Non-FSC wood (0%) ; $35,000
A: 85%
B: 77%
C: 84%
D: 53%

参考答案: D

本题解释:
See Materials and Resources Credit, Certified Wood

Only FSC Pure and FSC Mixed can count to this credit

FSC Recycled does not count toward certified wood and would be included as Recycled Content instead.
Certified wood material percentage = (material value of FSC certified wood/total new wood value) x 100
Value the FSC wood at the percentage of qualifying wood.

FSC Pure, $45,000 X 100% = $45,000
FSC Mixed, $75,000 X 50% = $37,500

Total new wood cost = $45,000 + $75,000 + 35,000 = $155,000

Qualifying wood value / Total new wood value = ($45,000 + $37,500) / $155,000 = 0.532 x 100 = 53%
