The estimated completion date, subject to furnishing all necessary data, is as soon as possible, from
receipt of authorization to proceed. Delivery of the report will be on or before October 24, 2014. Data

The fee for this assignment is $4,000. The fee is due and payable upon completion, with interest charged

we must have authorization to proceed as soon as possible.
