The slide is titled ‘Job Role Definitions.’ The points listed under the title are as follows: 1, Primary input values for the user are the Average Annual Salary (Column N), and the Multiplier or Discount (Column Q). These values will be specific to the organization carrying out the study. 2, Column Definitions: Role: the specific job role and associated responsibilities; Average Annual Salary: The total base salary for the role listed. Does not include fringe benefits or other added labor costs; Total Work Hours in a year: default value is 2,080, assuming a 40-hour work week, and 52 weeks per year; Unloaded Hourly Rate: Annual Salary divided by the number of work hours per year; Multiplier or Discount: Rate to include fringe benefits and other relevant labor-related costs; Fully Loaded Hourly Rate: total hourly rate for the role including all relevant labor costs. This is the rate used in the Task Table calculations.
