CHAPTER 20 – COSTS, COLLECTIONS, AND ACCOUNTING
21.11 – Direct Costs and Inflation
The following assessment (burden) rates have been established for FY 2009 for CWKV and SSSS for
Kisatchie NF. These rates are effective January 16, 2009 until new rates are established in FY 2010.
These rates are to be used for SAI and Salvage Plans, as required, ensuring adequate collections are
available for planned project work plus indirect costs. Failure to include the appropriate overhead
rates along with accurate up-to-date unit costs for direct project needs could result in understated Plan
needs, which in turn, will lead to a significant decrease in cash balances in these trust funds. Overhead
is no longer collected on CWF2 agreements for Erosion Control or Road Maintenance from timber
sale contracts.
Rates are calculated using a 3-year average of direct program costs and S.O. indirect costs. To
compute the collection rate, all costs not directly attributed to project activities are divided by all costs
that are. The indirect portion in cost pools is included in the National rate.
All charges at the District level are considered direct costs and should be considered when developing
the District's unit cost (per acre/mile) for SAI/Salvage Plans. Likewise, S.O. charges outside the cost
pools are also considered direct. Therefore, the S.O. overhead rate will be entered in FACTS as
DIRECT overhead rate and the National overhead rate will be entered in FACTS as INDIRECT
overhead rate.
Maintaining a planned level of direct costs is key in order for indirect costs to stay below the 20% cap,
i.e., lower total expenditures equals higher indirect rate.
Inflation Rates. In order to have adequate CWKV and SSSS funds available to accomplish project
work, it is necessary to plan an inflation rate into your SAI and Salvage plans for future work. An
inflation factor is only valid as it relates to stating one year's costs in terms of another; for example,
converting 2009 dollars to 2010 dollars, etc. For CWKV, careful consideration should be given to the
appropriate year of expenditure prior to applying the inflation factors. The following inflation factors,
derived from the program development process and OMB’s economic assumption package, should
provide some guidance along these lines in developing your SAI and Salvage plans. However, if
better figures are available, based on local conditions or information, then use them. Document the
source of the rates used in the plan narrative section.
