thousand one dollars ($4,001); and

(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).
