Column 1- Base it on the staff identified as directly involved in the Routine Activities of the subject service. The actual number may be obtained from the Citizen's
Charter or authorized office process flow, including the list of contractual positions for the particular service/s being rendered.
Column 2 - Match the salary grade for each staff. The salary grade data will be available at the Citizen's Charter, HR, Accounting, or Budget Office of the City.
Column 3 - Fill out the salary rate per month for each staff. The salary rates per month may be obtained from HR, Accounting, or Budget offices of the LGU.
Column 4 - Compute for the annual salary of the staff by multiplying column 3 by 12 months
Column 5. Identify all other remunerations regularly received by the staff. Data will be available at the City Budget or Accounting Department. In case data will
not be readily available, other benefits can be represented by computing 20% of the annual salary.
Column 6. Sum up columns 4 and 5, and multiply it by 80%. The 20% covers lag time usually allotted to attendance in seminars/trainings, leaves, and other admin
activities not related to the service. LGUs may also devise other method to determine the annual % of time assigned in the delivery of subject service, exclusive of
lag time.
Column 7. Approximate the annual percentage of time each staff performs the task directly related to the activity. Data shall be provided by the head of units
performing the service, e.g., if exclusively doing such task, then put 100%.

STEP 6. ESTIMATE AND DISTRIBUTE THE FIXED COSTS
STEP 6.A COST OF OFFICE SPACE
Instruction in Filling Up the Form
Column 1 - Describes the cost formula for determining share of office cost for delivering "Subject Service". Determine the cost of
construction per square meter (approximately P20,000/sq.m.) and the floor area of the entire City Hall. The building construction
cost is the product of the two values. Knowing the floor area occupied by the different offices delivering the "Subject Service", its
proportionate share in the total floor area of the city hall multiplied by cost of constructing the building will be the cost of office space
occupied. The annual depreciation rate is 4% since the normal economic life of reinforced concrete structures is 25 years. We can
compute for the annual depreciation expense by multiplying the cost of office space occupied by depreciation rate and approximately
the annual maintenance cost by apportioning 20% of the annual depreciation expenses. The 20% is used whenever actual data from
the Accounting Office is unavailable. The share of cost for delivering "Subject Service" can be computed by adding annual depreciation
expense and annual maintenance cost multiplied by the percent of work by the Office utilized for delivering the "Subject Service".
Column 2 - Apply the formula described above for the office involved in the delivery of the "Subject Service".
