Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: There are no program changes. The estimated annual hours of burden has slightly increased from 2,823,803 estimated hours in 2017 to 3,069,314 estimated hours in 2020. This slight increase is largely attributable to our estimate that more retailers are now subject to warranty requirements. The associated labor burden figure increased from $62,123,688 in 2017 to $70,594,222 in 2020. This labor cost increase is attributable in part to our estimate that more retailers are now subject to the Rule as well as a slight increase in the clerical hourly rates since 2017.

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $10,000
