# §47.104-2. Fixed-price contracts.

- (a) **F.o.b. destination.** 49 U.S.C. [10721](/usc/49/10721.md) and [13712](/usc/49/13712.md) rates do not apply to shipments under fixed-price f.o.b. destination contracts (delivered price).
- (b) **F.o.b. origin.** If it is advantageous to the Government, the contracting officer may occasionally require the contractor to prepay the freight charges to a specific destination. In such cases, the contractor shall use a commercial bill of lading and be reimbursed for the direct and actual transportation cost as a separate item in the invoice. The clause at 52.247-1, Commercial Bill of Lading Notations, will ensure that the Government in this type of arrangement obtains the benefit of 49 U.S.C. [10721](/usc/49/10721.md) and [13712](/usc/49/13712.md) rates.
