Thank you Mr. Farooq for always inviting me :)

My answer is letter A. Because in this case your time will be paid regardless of how long the project will take. The client can change their plans/ projects and in such case a higher invoice.

Thanks for invitation.

Out of the given options, option A appears to be appropriate.

To put it plainly, T&M or Unit Price Contract is used when level of effort can not be ascertained correctly at the time of awarding the contract.

T & M contract is normally used for small value & short period contracts.
