Sam, the allowance could be a turnkey figure including the labor. If this is the case, an hourly rate or unit figure would be written in to the allowance.

On the otherhand, it could be that the labor was included in the base bid
for a set amount of x type fixtures, x amount for chandeliers, x amount for ceiling fans etc..., any deviation from these set numbers would be a +/- change order.
