Instructions for PPP Schedule A Worksheet
Complete the PPP Schedule A Worksheet or obtain an equivalent report from the Borrower’s payroll system or payroll processor.
Table Instructions
Employee’s Name: Separately list each employee. Do not include any independent contractors, owner-employees, self-employed
individuals, or partners.
Employee Identifier: Enter the last four digits of each employee’s Social Security Number.
Cash Compensation: Enter the sum of gross salary, gross wages, gross tips, gross commissions, paid leave (vacation, family,
medical or sick leave, not including leave covered by the Families First Coronavirus Response Act), and allowances for dismissal or
separation paid or incurred during the Covered Period or the Alternative Payroll Covered Period. For each individual employee, the
total amount of cash compensation eligible for forgiveness may not exceed an annual salary of $100,000, as prorated for the Covered
Period; therefore, do not enter more than $15,385 in Table 1 or Table 2 for any individual employee.
Average FTE: This calculates the average full-time equivalency (FTE) during the Covered Period or the Alternative Payroll Covered
Period. For each employee, enter the average number of hours paid per week, divide by 40, and round the total to the nearest tenth.
The maximum for each employee is capped at 1.0. A simplified method that assigns a 1.0 for employees who work 40 hours or more
per week and 0.5 for employees who work fewer hours may be used at the election of the Borrower.
This calculation will be used to determine whether the Borrower’s loan forgiveness amount must be reduced due to a statutory
requirement concerning reductions in full-time equivalent employees. Borrowers are eligible for loan forgiveness for certain
expenditures during the Covered Period or the Alternative Payroll Covered Period. However, the actual loan forgiveness amount that
the Borrower will receive may be less, depending on whether the Borrower’s average weekly number of FTE employees during the
Covered Period or the Alternative Payroll Covered Period was less than during the Borrower’s chosen reference period (see
Instructions to PPP Schedule A, Line 11). The Borrower is exempt from such a reduction if the FTE Reduction Safe Harbor applies.
See the FTE Reduction Safe Harbor instructions below.
Salary/Hourly Wage Reduction: This calculation will be used to determine whether the Borrower’s loan forgiveness amount must
be reduced due to a statutory requirement concerning reductions in employee salary and wages. Borrowers are eligible for loan
forgiveness for certain expenditures during the Covered Period or the Alternative Payroll Covered Period. However, the actual
amount of loan forgiveness the Borrower will receive may be less, depending on whether the salary or hourly wages of certain
employees during the Covered Period or the Alternative Payroll Covered Period was less than during the period from January 1, 2020
to March 31, 2020. If the Borrower restored salary/hourly wage levels, the Borrower may be eligible for elimination of the
Salary/Hourly Wage Reduction amount. Borrowers must complete this worksheet to determine whether to reduce the amount of loan
forgiveness for which they are eligible. Complete the Salary/Hour Wage Reduction column only for employees whose salaries or
hourly wages were reduced by more than 25% during the Covered Period or the Alternative Payroll Covered Period as compared to
the period of January 1, 2020 through March 31, 2020. For each employee listed in Table 1, complete the following (using salary for
