English.8 Staff therefore projects that
approximately 6.5 percent of used car
sales will be conducted in Spanish.
Dealers will incur the additional burden
of completing and displaying a second
Buyers Guide in 6.5 percent of sales
assuming that dealers choose to comply
with the Rule by posting both English
and Spanish Buyers Guides. The annual
burden hours associated with
completing and posting Buyers Guides
is 1,737,638 hours (1,022,140 hours for
entering data on Buyers Guides plus
715,498 hours for displaying Buyers
Guides). Therefore, staff estimates that
the additional burden caused by the
Rule’s requirement that dealers display
Spanish language Buyers Guides when
conducting sales in Spanish is 112,947
hours (1,737,638 hours × 6.5%). The
other components of the annual hours
burden, i.e., purchasing Buyers Guides
and revising them for changes in
warranty coverage, remain unchanged.
Estimated annual cost burden:
$26,301,525 in labor costs and
$4,906,275 in non-labor costs
1. Labor costs: Labor costs are derived
by applying appropriate hourly cost
figures to the burden hours described
above. Staff has determined that all of
the tasks associated with ordering
forms, entering data on Buyers Guides,
posting Buyers Guides on vehicles, and
revising them as needed, including the
corresponding tasks associated with
Spanish Buyers Guides, are typically
done by clerical or low-level
administrative personnel. Using a
clerical cost rate of $13.32 per hour 9
and an estimated burden of 1,974,589
hours for disclosure requirements, the
total labor cost burden would be
approximately $26,301,525.
2. Capital or other non-labor costs:
Although the cost of Buyers Guides can
vary considerably, based on industry
input staff estimates that the average
cost of each Buyers Guide is twenty
cents. The estimated cost of Buyers
Guides for the 24,531,374 used cars sold
by dealers in 2009 is approximately
$4,906,275. In making this estimate,
staff conservatively assumes that all

are minimal.
