The total estimated cost of this proposal is $8,669,160 for each $1,000 salary increase granted to state employees, teachers and school service personnel, of which $3,524,379 per each $1,000 salary increase granted would be a cost increase to the State and $196,121 per each $1,000 salary increase granted would be a cost increase to the county boards of education, because of the personnel employed in excess of the number allowed for funding under the Public School Support Program.

See the attached schedule for an explanation of the calculations.
