STEP TWO: Determine the result of the school corporation's current ADM for the year minus the STEP ONE amount.
STEP THREE: Determine the result of:
(A) the foundation amount; multiplied by
(B) the STEP TWO amount.
STEP FOUR: Determine the result of:
(A) the STEP ONE amount; multiplied by
(B) eighty-five percent (85%) of the foundation amount.
STEP FIVE: Multiply the school corporation's complexity index by:
(A) for the state fiscal year beginning July 1, 2025, four thousand one dollars ($4,001); and
(B) for the state fiscal year beginning July 1, 2026, four thousand fifteen dollars ($4,015).
STEP SIX: Multiply the STEP FIVE amount by the school corporation's current ADM.
