Description
COPAS annually publishes various “economic factors,” but many industry professionals, including most COPAS veterans, do not understand the purpose of, history of, and actual calculations of those economic factors.

Factors include:
- Overhead Escalation Percentage
- Audit Per Diem Rate

- Excluded Amount
