Hello,
Please help me understand why this answer is incorrect.
The questions asks:
A contractor has won the bid for a hospital project that will take 18 months to construct but will span three years. According to AIA A201, who pays for the taxes during the construction of the building?
I answered “The contractor pays all employment and sales taxes, the owner pays other taxes”
This has been marked incorrect. It is the contractor’s responsibility to pay for taxes on all materials, labor, and services that they purchase and provide. It is the owner’s responsibility to pay all property taxes. Why is my answer incorrect?
Thank you,
Daniel
