    submitted to: General Services Administration, FAR Secretariat (MVRS),

    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    
    A. Purpose
    
        Fixed-price contracts with prospective price redetermination 
    provide for firm fixed prices for an initial period of the contract 
    with prospective redetermination at stated times during performance. 
    Fixed price contracts with retroactive price redetermination provide 
    for a fixed ceiling price and retroactive price redetermination within 
    the ceiling after completion of the contract. In order for the amounts 
    of price adjustments to be determined, the firms performing under these 
    contracts must provide information to the Government regarding their 
    expenditures and anticipated costs. The information is used to 
    establish fair price adjustments to Federal contracts.
