UNBILLED AIR RECALCULATION PROCEDURES: ....-7"\:

This analysis should be done by project #. If you cannot obtain invoice information byproject #, just complete the totals column for the ITO billings (override formulas) section.

1. Obtain ITO revenues from 3/31/05 Contract Summary, or from WlP's.

2. Obtain ITO billings amount from invoice summary.

3. Reduce your ITO billings for any invoices sent to client after 3/31/05 in orderto arrive at an actual invoiced amount as of 3/31/05.

4. In order to test the reasonableness of the recalculated unbilled balance,obtain copies of invoices issued after 3/31/05 for work performed through3/31/05.

6. Test reasonableness of Recalculated Unbilled Balance and provide an explanation:Your recalculated unbilled balance should make sense based on subsequent billingsor other factor~ such as the billing arrangements on the job.

For cost type contracts (e.g., T&M) and completed fixed price contracts,attempt to prove out your unbilled AIR balance by billings subsequent to3/31/05 that relate to services provided by Bearing Point prior to 3/31/05.Your unbilled balance should come reasonably close to the subsequentbillings.

For ongoing fixed price contracts, there may not be a correlation betweenyour unbilled balance and subsequent billings. However, you shouldreview subsequent billings and understand why the unbilled balance at3/31/05 may not correlate to subsequent billings. This will be a matter ofunderstanding the billing arrangements on the contract.

If you have a negative unbilled balance, make sure that this appears reasonable basedon factors such as the project bills the client in advance.

Do not spend too much time trying to explain the recalculated unbilled balance.Please check with your audit review team lead for guidance.
