Thus a small company may require fewer than 1,000 hours per year to comply while a large company may require more than 10,000 hours per year to comply. The estimated total annual cost burden to respondents includes labor costs associated with record retention ($65,597,025) and both electronic and non-electronic record storage costs ($72,400,925). The total annual cost is $137,997,950; the total annual cost per respondent is $290,522. The reporting burden includes the total time, effort, or financial resources expended to generate, maintain, retain, disclose, or provide the information including: (1) Reviewing instructions; (2) developing, acquiring, installing, and utilizing technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, verifying, processing, maintaining, disclosing and providing information; (3) adjusting the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements; (4) training personnel to respond to a collection of information; (5) searching data sources; (6) completing and reviewing the collection of information; and (7) transmitting, or otherwise disclosing the information. The estimate of cost for respondents is based upon salaries for professional and clerical support, as well as direct and indirect overhead costs.
