Note that these results are very similar to the main targeting results because the differences in targeting costs are small relative to the transfers considered here. Note that the transfer sizes above are monthly transfers in Rp. 000s. Assuming that targeting is done once per year, so the one-time cost of targeting is amortized over twelve monthly transfers, the costs of targeting per beneficiary are Rp. 7,000 for PMT, Rp. 3,100 for community, and Rp. 8,000 for hybrid.
