Morphology

unbilled = billed (transparent) = un + bill + ed

Clearly formed by adding 'un-' to the participial/adjectival 'billed' to indicate 'not yet invoiced or charged'.

Etymology

The word unbilled is made of un- meaning 'not' and bill meaning a paper that asks for money ('invoice'). So unbilled work or costs are 'not on the invoice' yet, which is why they have not been charged.
