For each month the market administrator shall compute the uniform price per hundredweight for milk of 3.5 percent butterfat content received from producers as follows:

(a) Combine into one total the values computed pursuant to § 1134.60 for all handlers who filed the reports prescribed in § 1134.30 for the month and who made the payments pursuant to §§ 1134.71 and 1134.73 for the preceding month;

(b) Add an amount equal to the sum of the deductions to be made forlocation adjustments pursuant to § 1134.75;

(c) Add an amount equal to not less than one-half of the unobligated balance in the producer-settlement fund;

(d) Divide the resulting amount by the sum of the following for all handlers included in these computations:

(1) The total hundredweight of producer milk; and

(2) The total hundredweight for which a value is computed pursuant to § 1134.60(f); and

(e) Subtract not less than 4 cents nor more than 5 cents per hundredweight. The result shall be the “uniform price” for milk received from producers.
