Short Statement:
The estimates represent an increase from 84,700 hours to 91,602 hours in internal burden and a decrease from $14,000,000 to $10,179,782 in external costs per year. The increase in internal burden hours is due to both the increase in the number of portfolios estimated to respond to rule 30e-2, the increased burden our proposed amendments to Regulation S-X, and the inapplicability of one-time hour burdens that were associated with amendments to Forms N-1A, N-2 and N-3. The decrease in external costs per year is due to the reduced costs of printing and mailing shareholder reports for the approximately 90% of funds that would rely on proposed rule 30e-3.
