Nonpersonnel expenses: You have been tasked with computing baseline budget targets for the upcoming budget cycle. Using Table 12.2 as your starting point, make the following adjustments:

(a) Solar panels have been installed with an expected 5% decrease in utility cost, for a savings of about $7,611?

(b) The inspection program was started in FY 2014 and had funding for three fourths of the year. All of the start-up costs were incurred in FY 2014. The annualized value of the inspection supplies for the remaining one fourth of the year is $81,899.

(c) Inflation is expected to be 2% except for utilities, which will see no increase, and for leased space, which by contract will have a 3% inflationary increase.

(d) The number of service units will not change.

(e) All departments are expected to achieve a 1% improvement in efficiency on all lines of cost and in all programs. (f) Budget baselines are not given out with cents, so round to the nearest dollar.
