What must be included in the contract if services are to be performed on an hourly or other periodic basis?

  1. The total cost

  2. The rate and a fixed limit of periodic units

  3. Only the rate

  4. The deadline for service completion

The correct answer is: The rate and a fixed limit of periodic units

A contract for services to be performed on an hourly or other periodic basis must include the rate and a fixed limit of periodic units. This means that the contract must state the agreed-upon hourly or periodic rate, as well as specify the maximum number of hours or periods in which the service will be performed. Option A, the total cost, may vary depending on the number of hours or periods needed to complete the service, so it is not a sufficient requirement for this type of contract. Option C, only including the rate, does not specify the limit of units or hours for the service, which could leave room for disagreement or confusion. Option D, the deadline for service completion, may not be relevant for contracts where the service is performed periodically rather than on a specific deadline. Therefore, option B is the most appropriate choice for the contract's requirements.
