FAR and DFARS › FAR Part 52: Solicitation Provisions and Contract Clauses › Subpart 52.2

FAR 52.241-13 Capital Credits.

The codified text (eCFR, as of 2026-10-02). Under the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul ↗, agencies follow class deviations with new text for many parts while the formal rules go through the Federal Register: check the solicitation and your contract's clauses, which rule.

In plain English

This clause applies when the Government is a member of a cooperative and is entitled to capital credits under the cooperative's bylaws. It requires the contractor to report accrued credits to the Contracting Officer on a set schedule and to pay those credits by check to the named agency. It matters because it sets the reporting and payment mechanics for money owed to the Government as a cooperative member.

Applies to: Contracts with cooperatives where the Government is a member entitled to capital credits

What it requires

  • Furnish to the Contracting Officer or designated representative, in writing, a list of accrued credits by contract number, year, and delivery point on the specified periodic basis
  • Pay capital credits by check payable to the named agency and forwarded to the Contracting Officer at the specified address, unless otherwise directed in writing by the Contracting Officer
  • Cite the current or last contract number on checks and indicate whether the check is partial or final payment for all capital credits accrued
