The MFL site seems to take only the 0.2 * current salary into consideration for the current year. The Frenzy app, on the other hand, seems to suggest that the full amount is incurred in the current year.
You are correct...20% for current year, 10% for each subsequent years on the contract. There are two periods during the year - Hard Cap period and Soft Cap period...we are currently in Hard Cap period, so the entire penalty is applied to this years cap. During Soft Cap period, the penalty is split between this year and next.

MFL does not handle our complete set of rules, and can only handle the 20% penalty for current year. So someone has to manually go in and add in the multi year penalties - I think Dale has volunteered to do that, but Jim might still be handling it. If you see any descrepancies, please post those in the forums...MFL and APP should match up with your own personal team records.

Make sense?
