Note 1: For numbers marked as XXXX, YYYY, and ZZZ you will use your student ID number to complete these values. For XXXX use the first 4 digits, for YYYY use the last 4 digits, and for ZZZ use the first 3 digits of your student ID. For example, if your student ID number was 88994433, then where you see XXXX, use 8899, for YYYY, use 4433, and for ZZZ, use 889. Thus Property Taxes below is $8,899,000, Sales Taxes is $4,433,000, and Food Inspection Program is $3,633,000 (4,433,000 800,000).

Note 2: If your first four or last four student ID digits begin with a zero, then substitute the zero with a 8. For example, if your first four digits of your student ID are 0900, then use 8900 as your number in this project.
