Input Categories
It is easy to enter information for this program. In addition
to the typical context sensitive help we make knowing what to input even easier. When your
cursor is on an input, part of the input screen has a paragraph or more of explanation
devoted to that input. You will probably not need to refer to the help box, but it is
there if you need it.
The input for each automobile fringe valuation method is on a
tabbed input screen similar to dividers on a notebook. The inputs appear in a logical
order. First you enter information that is either general in nature or would be needed for
computing more than one method. Then enter informtion for the specific methods. The order
for those inputs starts with the method that is likely give the employee the lowest
compensation for personal use of the company car and proceeds to the highest compensation
method. The order doesn't make much difference since you only enter information for the
methods you want to consider.
