Thepercentage of recycled contentcontributing to the credit is calculated based on the value of the recycled content relative to the total construction cost. The combined value of recycled content here is $1 million (post-consumer) + $1 million (pre-consumer) = $2 million. The percentage is then calculated as:

2,000,00010,000,000×100=20%\frac{2,000,000}{10,000,000} \times 100 = 20\%10,000,0002,000,000​×100=20%

Therefore, the recycled content accounts for20%of the total material value for the project, contributing to theMaterials and Resources Credit: Building Product Disclosure and Optimization - Sourcing of Raw Materials.
