If you do not have a breakdown you need to use the TOTAL SUBCONTRACTING AMOUNT for item (D) even though you must still breakdown the contractor's costs.

In accordance with FAR Clause 52.219-14(e)(1), Services, it will not pay more than 50 percent of the amount paid by the Government for contract performance, excluding the cost of materials, to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities. Any work that a similarly situated entity further subcontracts will count towards the prime contractor's 50 percent subcontract amount that cannot be exceeded. Therefore, the prime contractor or similarly situated entities shall perform a minimum of 50 percent of the work, excluding the cost of materials.

Your firm may utilize this form for purposes of declaring your subcontracting percentages or you may provide one in your own format, provided the government can clearly understand your firm does NOT exceed the 50% Limitation on Subcontracting for Services, of this type.
