          The appropriation in this section is subject to the following conditions and limitations:

          (1) The following calculations determine the salaries used in the general fund allocations for certificated instructional, certificated administrative, and classified staff units under section 502 of this act:

          (a) Salary allocations for certificated instructional staff units shall be determined for each district by multiplying the district's certificated instructional derived base salary shown on LEAP Document 12 by the district's average staff mix factor for basic education certificated instructional staff in that school year, computed using LEAP Document 1.

          (b) Salary allocations for certificated administrative staff units and classified staff units shall be determined for each district by the district's certificated administrative and classified salary allocation amounts shown on LEAP Document 12.

          (2)(a) Districts shall certify to the superintendent of public instruction such information as may be necessary regarding the years of service and educational experience of basic education certificated instructional employees for the purposes of calculating certificated instructional staff salary allocations pursuant to this section.  Any change in information previously certified, on the basis of years of experience or educational credits, shall be reported and certified to the superintendent of public instruction at the time such change takes place.

          (b) For the purposes of this section, "basic education certificated instructional staff" is defined as provided in RCW 28A.41.110.

          (c) "LEAP Document 1" means the computerized tabulation establishing staff mix factors for basic education certificated instructional staff according to education and years of experience, as developed by the legislative evaluation and accountability program committee on August 18, 1987, at 13:26 hours.

          (f) The incremental fringe benefits factors applied to salary increases in this section shall be 1.1916 for certificated salaries and 1.1379 for classified salaries in the 1989-90 school year, and 1.1921 for certificated salaries and 1.1384 for classified salaries in the 1990-91 school year.

          (3) (($7,492,000)) $11,658,000 is provided solely to increase allocations for certificated administrative staff units provided under section 502 of this act, pursuant to this subsection.  For the 1989-90 and 1990-91 school years, the allocation for each certificated administrative staff unit shall be increased by 2.5 percent of the 1988-89 state-wide average certificated administrative salary shown on LEAP Document 12, multiplied by incremental fringe benefits.

          For the 1990-91 school year, the allocation for each certificated administrative staff unit shall be further increased by 3.075 percent of the 1988-89 state-wide average certificated administrative salary shown on LEAP Document 12, multiplied by incremental fringe benefits.

          (5) (($160,733,000)) $205,736,000 is provided solely to increase allocations for certificated instructional staff units provided under section 502 of this act, pursuant to this subsection:

          (a) For any district with a derived base salary of $17,600 on LEAP Document 12, the allocation for each certificated instructional staff unit in the 1989-90 school year shall be increased by the difference between:

          (i) The district's salary allocation per certificated instructional staff unit computed under subsection (1)(a) of this section, adjusted for incremental fringe benefits; and

          (ii) The district's 1989-90 average certificated instructional staff allocation salary as determined by placing the district's actual full time equivalent basic education certificated instructional staff on the state-wide salary allocation schedule established in subsection (6) of this section, adjusted for incremental fringe benefits.

          (b) For any district with a derived base salary greater than $17,600 on LEAP Document 12, the allocation for each certificated instructional staff unit in the 1989-90 school year shall be increased by 4.0 percent of the district's salary allocation per certificated instructional staff unit computed under subsection (1)(a) of this section, adjusted for incremental fringe benefits.

          (i) The district's salary allocation per certificated instructional staff unit computed under subsection (1)(a) of this section, adjusted for incremental fringe benefits; and

          (ii) The district's salary allocation per certificated instructional staff unit computed under subsection (1)(a) of this section multiplied by the compounded increase provided in this subsection, adjusted for incremental fringe benefits.  The compounded increase for each district shall be 7.12 percent, compounded by the percentage difference between the district's average staff mix factor for actual 1990-91 full time equivalent basic education certificated instructional employees computed using LEAP Document 1((R)) Revised and such factor for the same 1990-91 employees computed using LEAP Document 1.
