WORKSHEET FOR
I FS Non -Cash Contribution Cost Analysis, Column (a) I
U se this worksheet to perform the cost analysis that supports the lump sum figures provided in the
matrix. NOTE: This worksheet auto populates the relevant and applicable matrix cells.
Cost element sections may be deleted or lines may be hidden, if not applicable. Line items may be
added or deleted as needed. The Standard Calculation sections provide a standardized formula for
determing a line item's cost, e.g. cost/day x # of days=total, where the total is calculated automatically.
The Non -Standard Calculation sections provide a write-in area for line items that require a calculation
formula that is other than the standardized formules, e.g. instead of salaries being calculated by
cost/day x # of days, costs may be calculated simply by a contracted value that is not dependent on
days worked, such as 1 employee x $1,200/contract= $1,200. Be sure to review your calculations when
entering in a Non -Standard Calculation, and provide a brief explanation of units used to make
calculation, e.g. '1 month contract,' on a line below the figures.
