In order to succeed in a construction business you have to be able to mark up the price of your jobs to cover overhead expenses and make a decent profit. The problem is how much to mark it up. You don't want to lose jobs because you charge too much, and you don't want to work for free because you've charged too little. If you know how much to mark up you can apply it to your job costs and arrive at the right sales price for your work. This book gives you the background and the calculations necessary to easily figure the markup that is right for your business. Includes a CD-ROM with forms and checklists for your use.

The authors provide practical information that can be used by all construction industry professionals, as well as detailed analyses of California construction law-both as codified in the statutes & as expressed by California courts. The topics in the book are organized in the same manner as they would actually arise in a construction project. First, it deals with pre-construction issues-licensing, bidding, & the formation of the construction contract. Then it discusses what happens when things go wrong-breach of contract by the owner and/or the contractor. An in-depth analysis is provided with regard to claims involving delay, disruption, & acceleration. Several chapters are then devoted to statutory remedies-mechanics' liens, stop notices, & bonds both on public & private works. Finally, coverage is provided on other issues & subjects involving the construction industry, including expanding liability, construction defect issues, bankruptcy, & alternative dispute resolution.

The passage of Citizens United by the Supreme Court in 2010 sparked a renewed debate about campaign spending by large political action committees, or Super PACs. Its ruling said that it is okay for corporations and labor unions to spend as much as they want in advertising and other methods to convince people to vote for or against a candidate. This book provides a wide range of opinions on the issue. Includes primary and secondary sources from a variety of perspectives; eyewitnesses, scientific journals, government officials, and many others.
