Friday, January 04, 2002 4:43 PM 911 Victim Compensation Fund of 2001 Dear Mr. Zwick: Please open the attached word document file for the comments. Thank you very much for your consideration. -- A victim family Individual Comment Attachment 1: Mr. Kenneth L. Zwick, Director Office of Management Programs U.S. Department of Justice Civil Division Main Building, Room 3140 950 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20530 Dear Mr. Zwick: I am from one of the victims' families. The more I am reading the loss calculation tables, the more I am puzzled. In order to reach the objectives of the program, i.e. to be fair, predictable and consistent. Please publish all the assumptions that are used, i.e. average expected work life, consumption factors and etc. so that the victim families have a true understanding of the compensation program and will be able to predict their presumed compensation. Please also explain the logic of the marginal cost of raising a child in your published chart because it is significantly lower than other government survey such as USDA's annual report. * The following two tables are from your published chart, the first one is for married with one dependent who is a 9 year-old and the second one is for married with two dependents who are infant and a 9 year-old. The difference between the two tables is calculated to be the marginal cost of raising an infant to 18 years old. married/1 dependent (age 9) 10,000 30,000 40,000 50,000 60,000 70,000 80,000 100,000 25 673,952 1,226,922 1,520,993 1,833,922 2,103,229 2,360,231 2,654,498 3,132,957 30 626,986 1,098,782 1,348,696 1,614,124 1,843,414 2,062,187 2,311,696 2,718,052 35 546,113 878,128 1,052,005 1,235,638 1,396,020 1,548,962 1,721,399 2,003,595 40 514,642 792,264 936,552 1,088,356 1,221,924 1,349,249 1,491,694 1,725,576 45 500,000 708,033 823,294 943,874 1,051,138 1,153,333 1,266,357 1,452,843 50 500,000 627,165 714,560 805,163 887,173 965,242 1,050,020 1,191,002 55 500,000 544,302 604,111 665,447 722,124 776,023 833,295 929,439 60 500,000 500,000 522,277 563,860 602,284 638,825 677,653 742,834 65 500,000 500,000 500,000 502,101 529,429 555,418 583,033 629,391 married/2 dependent (age 9 and infant) 10,000 30,000 40,000 50,000 60,000 70,000 80,000 100,000 25 741,554 1,314,621 1,610,618 1,920,345 2,194,988 2,456,664 2,746,651 3,224,818 30 694,588 1,186,481 1,438,321 1,700,548 1,935,173 2,158,621 2,403,849 2,809,912 35 613,714 965,827 1,141,629 1,322,061 1,487,780 1,645,396 1,813,552 2,095,456 40 582,244 879,963 1,026,177 1,174,779 1,313,683 1,445,683 1,583,848 1,817,436 45 547,827 788,109 905,063 1,023,196 1,134,755 1,240,714 1,350,342 1,536,662 50 513,199 696,510 785,269 874,486 959,327 1,039,876 1,122,505 1,263,500 55 500,000 604,733 665,541 726,311 784,578 839,871 896,019 992,284 60 500,000 538,800 580,025 621,224 660,727 698,214 736,279 801,543 65 500,000 500,000 528,037 557,339 585,434 612,095 639,168 685,585 Difference 10,000 30,000 40,000 50,000 60,000 70,000 80,000 100,000 25 67,602 87,699 89,625 86,423 91,759 96,433 92,153 91,861 30 67,602 87,699 89,625 86,424 91,759 96,434 92,153 91,860 35 67,601 87,699 89,624 86,423 91,760 96,434 92,153 91,861 40 67,602 87,699 89,625 86,423 91,759 96,434 92,154 91,860 45 47,827 80,076 81,769 79,322 83,617 87,381 83,985 83,819 50 13,199 69,345 70,709 69,323 72,154 74,634 72,485 72,498 55 - 60,431 61,430 60,864 62,454 63,848 62,724 62,845 60 - 38,800 57,748 57,364 58,443 59,389 58,626 58,709 65 - - 28,037 55,238 56,005 56,677 56,135 56,194 * US Department of Agriculture publishes a report on Expenditures on Children by Families.
