If a routine requires 5 A Value Parts and 1 B Value Part substitutes for an A Value Part, and the routine contains 5 A Parts and 1 B Part, what is the Start Value deduction for missing A Value Parts?

• A. 0.00
• B. 0.10
• C. 0.20
• D. 0.50

Answer: (A)

A B Value Part can stand in for an A Value Part, so it counts toward meeting the required number of A Value Parts. If the routine needs five A Value Parts and one B Value Part substitutes for an A Value Part, that substitution fills that A slot. With the routine having five A Parts and one B Part, the B Part covers one of the A slots, meaning there are no missing A Value Parts to deduct for Start Value. So the Start Value deduction is 0.00.
