NOTES ON COMPLETING FORM SFN1
GENERAL
  1. One calculation should be made for each unit type which has COMMON characteristics, including common multipliers.
  1. If more columns are required, continue and total on a separate form.
  1. Staple the form(s) to the main SFN1 application form.
  1. Definitions of the key terminology (net/appropriate floor area, unit, and multipliers) are given in CALCULATING GRANT which should be read before completing the form.
UNIT TYPE
  1. Make an entry in each of lines 1 to 7.
  1. Lines 1, 2: in the case of mixed schemes use separate columns for new build and rehabilitation and for units attracting different grant rates .
  1. Lines 3, 4: enter the relevant floor area BAND from the TCI tables, for example '3035’.
MULTIPLIERS
  1. Work down the multipliers, ticking only those that are common to ALL the dwellings in the Unit Type. Select only ONE of the KEY multipliers.
  1. Enter the relevant FACTOR for each multiplier so identified, using the TCI tables.
/
  1. A matrix showing the valid combinations of supplementary multipliers is given in CALCULATING GRANT.
  1. Multiply the factors together to produce the GROSS MULTIPLIER, working to 2 decimal places.
  1. Entries in lines 9 to 16 should be rounded to the nearest pounds, corrected at each calculation step.
  1. The basic TCI for the unit/person (line 9) is taken from the relevant cost group in the TCI tables, using m2 to identify the correct basic rate. The current TCI and associated tables have been made available direct to restricted users.
  1. The ADJUSTED TCI (line 11) is calculated by applying the Gross Multiplier (which is the product of all adjustments to the basic unit type) and the Total Basic TCI (line 9).
  1. The total number of persons in the scheme should be separately worked for new build and for rehabilitation units in a mixed scheme.
  1. Unit Grant rate (line 12) is taken from the Grant rate tables, using Grant rate type (line 2) and Gross multiplier (line 8) to identify the correct basic rate.
  1. NORM GRANT (line 13) is calculated by multiplying the ADJUSTED TCI (line 11) by the Grant rate (line 12).
