It’s important to be thorough and detailed in putting together your budget; it will be critical throughout implementation and will be closely considered by potential funders. -The total cost of a survey is the sum of fixed costs, like transportation and equipment costs, and variable expenses like salaries, per diems, and administration costs. See the attached [budget template](INSERT LINK) for an overview of typical costs and notes on how to estimate them. +The total cost of a survey is the sum of fixed costs, like transportation and equipment costs, and variable expenses like salaries, per diems, and administration costs. ##Salaries Estimating total salary costs before drawing the sample (needed in order to determine the teams and route plans) requires a bit of guesswork. One approach is to estimate the work-hours needed to conduct the survey (survey length x sample size) and divide by some estimated number of enumerators to come up with the number of enumerator days you will need to pay. The per diem may need to cover food and lodging, and make this clear to enumerators so they can plan accordingly. For surveys that will require long fieldwork, it is good practice to pay salary on a rest day each week although some enumerators prefer to work continuously in order to finish sooner and return home. This choice is context-specific. diff --git a/implementation/implementation.html b/implementation/implementation.html index a7c00d1..11b7a6e 100755 --- a/implementation/implementation.html +++ b/implementation/implementation.html @@ -266,6 +266,7 @@ +
