•The Annual column represents the profit plan goals.  The annual values are subtotals from the profit plan line items.
•The Monthly column represents the monthly objectives.  The annual values are divided by 12 monthly periods.
•The significant vales in the per direct hour column are the average billing rate per hour of $88.94 in the net revenue row and the average direct labor rate of $27.43 in the direct labor row.

•The annual plan for net revenue and operating profit is divided by full-time-equivalents to get the values per FTE. Calculate the values for total FTE’s and technical only FTE’s
•The annual plan for net revenue is divided by total labor to calculate the profit plan revenue factor.
•Divide total labor by net revenue to calculate total labor as a percentage of net revenue.
