1.Cost avoidance is the difference: (the cost of licenses provided if purchased at single copy academic prices) -(what we actually paid).

2.Cost savings are dollars that the university was actually spending, that it stopped spending as a result of something we did. The $s that were being spent by departments in Indianapolis for various redundant stat/math licenses fall into this category.
