[BLDG-SIM] 25% Process Load in ASHRAE baseline building

Hello All-
 
I am using eQUEST to model an elementary school that will be submitted
with the projects LEED documentation.  LEED NC 2.2 from October 2005
states that the proposed building "must be compared against a baseline
building that complies with Appendix G to Standard 90.1-2004 (without
amendments). The default process energy cost is 25% of the total energy
cost for the baseline building".  
 
My question:  What is the best way to incorporate a 25% process load
into the eQUEST file?  I know that I could put in a misc load into the
ASHRAE baseline building I created, and play with that number until it
reaches 25% of the total energy use, but it seems like there should be a
better way to incorporate this load. 
 
Any help is much appreciated!
 
Thanks,
Bridgette
