When fees are subtracted from the subtotal, fees are deducted from the rate or a lump sum entered to produce an “effective rate” or “effective lump sum.” Both are displayed on the Preview page. 

SAG-AFTRA payments can be processed either way. Unless the signatory contract stipulates otherwise, the effective rate must meet the union minimum. As for ACTRA payments, fees can be subtracted from the subtotal only for lump sum payments.
