Whether to use full-time or part-time provider prices is dependent on the average weekly authorized hours.
If the authorized hours do not vary from week to week and are 20 hours per week or less (but not zero), use the part-time provider price.
If the authorized hours do not vary from week to week and are more than 20 hours per week (e.g., 20 hours and 15 minutes), use the full-time provider price.
If authorized hours vary week to week and any of the weeks are more than 20 hours, use the full-time provider price.
When the authorization is only for school closures (see 16.1.2.2.1), use the full-time provider price.
