$34.10
Administrative expenses paid from plan assets, per participant, as the sponsor reported, for form year 2024. The denominator is 44,522 participants with account balances.
This is line 2i(12) of Schedule H only. It excludes fees netted inside fund expense ratios and fees the employer pays directly, which are not in that line and are therefore not in this figure.
Among plans of its size — 10,000–49,999 participants with account balances, 825 plans in that band across the whole dataset — this plan's reported figure is between the 10th and 25th percentiles.

Percentiles are computed over all 52,836 qualifying plans in the form year 2024 dataset, not over the plans published here.
