  7. Rate Calculation Demonstration • The rate calculation is based on the following: • The anticipated annual salary is multiplied by the employee’s actual benefit factor, then multiplied by the employee’s anticipated downtime rate. That produces an anticipated annual recharge cost which is then divided by the number of working hours in the year to yield an hourly recharge rate. • As with other recharge operations, additional calculations are occasionally necessary to make adjustments to prior years.
