ATP and ATS costs reflect total ASM commitment; personnel performing these functions support other program areas as well. FTE
costs cannot be totally attributed to ASM program
Annual contract/lease costs are generally 2.5% of purchase price ($3.5M) = $87,500/mo X 12 mo = $1,050,000/yr
FTE annual costs calculated at GS-12 step 5: $71,874 + $28,750 (40% admin) = $100, 624/yr
