(1) The total obligation of the handler for such month as determined pursuant to § 1049.60.

(2) The sum of:

(i) The value of such handler's receipts of producer milk at the weighted average differential price adjusted pursuant to § 1049.75;

(ii) The value of the protein in such handler's receipts of producer milk at the producer protein price computed pursuant to § 1049.62; and

(iii) The value at the weighted average differential price applicable at the location of the plant from which received of other source milk for which a value is computed pursuant to § 1049.60(g).

(b) On or before the 25th day after the end of the month each person who operated an other plant that was regulated during such month under an order providing for individual-handler pooling shall pay to the market administrator an amount computed as follows:

(1) Determine the quantity of reconstituted skim milk in filled milk in route disposition from such plant in the marketing area which was allocated to Class I at such plant.

(2) Compute the value of the reconstituted skim milk assigned in paragraph (b)(1) of this section to route disposition in this marketing area by multiplying the quantity of such skim milk by the difference between the Class I price under this part that is applicable at the location of the other order plant (but not to be less than the Class III price) and the Class III price.
