The Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI), Child Nutrition Services (CNS),
annually compiles data on aspects of food service operations and the accounting of
federal funds. The Report 1800 Series is a compilation of reports and statistics for public
school districts. These reports are available to assist school districts in evaluating the
performance of their food service operations. Districts can use the reports to compare
their food service costs to revenues and equivalent meals served. Districts should strive
for a breakeven point between total costs and total revenues. The report also shows
school breakfast and lunch meal participation amongst districts.
Districts included in the Report 1800 operate under the National School Lunch Program
(NSLP) and/or School Breakfast Program (SBP). Food service revenues, expenditures,
and student participation data for districts not operating any federally funded food service
program or operating only the Special Milk Program are excluded.
FINANCIAL DATA SOURCE
The financial data in the Report 1800 Series is derived from each school district’s annual
financial report (SPI/F-196) filed with OSPI. For comparison purposes, statewide totals for
several of the previous years are included at the end of each report.
MEMORANDUM NO. 025-15 CNS

Use caution when comparing the financial administrative performance of one district to
another. Decisions should not be based solely on information taken from this report but
also weighted by other factors such as school board policies, economic status of the
students, enrollment, student participation, type of food service, and district operating
procedures– all of which may significantly influence financial results.
STATISTICAL SUMMARY
The following table presents a three-year comparison of food service operations for all
districts operating federal meal programs based on data in the Report 1800 Series.

The cost of food and labor charged by contractors providing food management services to
certain school districts is recorded in Report 1800 A under the "food" and "labor"
categories. The "other" expenditure category includes travel, contractual services, and
debit transfers.
Credit transfers were prorated to labor, food, supplies, capital outlay, and other
expenditures based on the ratio of each category to the total of all categories for each
school district.
For the purposes of the Report 1800 Series, indirect costs are allocated by applying an
unrestricted indirect cost rate. The rate for FY 2013–14 was derived from each school
district’s FY 2011–12 F-196 Report – Schedule for Determining School District Federal
Unrestricted Indirect Cost Rate Including Fixed with Carry-Forward Calculation for FY
2013–14.
In Report 1800 A, indirect costs were calculated by dividing selected administrative,
service, maintenance, and grounds expenditures in Program 97 – Districtwide Support, by
MEMORANDUM NO. 025-15 CNS

total general fund direct expenditures less food expenditures. Each school district’s
unrestricted indirect cost rate was multiplied by the school district’s food service program
direct expenditures less capital outlay and food costs. The result was the indirect costs
allocable to the food services program. In FY 2013–14, the sum of the indirect costs
allocated to the food services program in all school districts equaled $34,172,489. This
amount represents 8.47 percent of the statewide food service expenditures.
Report 1800 B – Expenditures as a Percent of Revenue
Report 1800 C – Expenditures as a Percent of Revenue (Ranked)
Reports 1800 B and C display the percentage of Program 98 food services expenditures
to the total food services revenues in each school district.
Each report is organized in county/district order. Report 1800 C was sorted to display
those school districts with the largest net loss percentage to ones with the largest net gain
percentage.
Report 1800 D – Expenditures and Revenues per Equivalent Lunch
Report 1800 E – Expenditures and Revenues per Equivalent Lunch (Ranked)
Each report displays the expenditures and revenues per equivalent lunch served. Report
1800 D is presented in county/district order. Report 1800 E is sorted by the district with
the lowest expenditures per equivalent lunch to the highest.
Equivalent lunches were calculated by combining the following:
1. The number of lunches served.
2. The number of equivalent lunches derived from breakfasts. Breakfasts were
converted to equivalent lunches by dividing the number of breakfasts served by
1.50.
3. The number of equivalent lunches derived from snacks. Snacks were converted
to equivalent lunches by dividing the number of snacks served by three.
4. The number of equivalent lunches derived from á la carte revenue. For FY 2013–14,
á la carte revenue was converted to equivalent lunches by dividing á la carte
revenues by the sum of the following factors:
a. The free lunch reimbursement rate of $2.93 (for less than 60 percent eligible)
and $2.95 (for 60 percent or more eligible) effective July 1, 2012 through June
30, 2014.
b. The value associated with USDA foods of $0.2325.
MEMORANDUM NO. 025-15 CNS

The expenditures per equivalent lunch for each school district was calculated by dividing
total expenditures by its equivalent lunch count.
Note: The above conversion rates meet the National Food Service Management Institute
(NFSMI) requirements.
Report 1800 F – Percentage of Food and Labor Costs to Total Revenues
Report 1800 F displays the percentage of each school district's total food and labor
expenditures to its total revenues. The districts are sorted from the lowest percentage to
the highest percentage.

Report 1800 H – Lunch Participation
Report 1800 G displays the number of free, reduced-price, and paid breakfasts served
compared to the total student breakfast participation during the 2013–14 school year.
Report 1800 H displays the number of free, reduced-price, and paid lunches served
compared to the total student lunch participation during the 2013–14 school year.
Note: Adult lunches, adult breakfasts, snacks, and á la carte equivalent meals were
excluded from the number of meal counts in Reports 1800 G and 1800 H.
Report 1800 I – Percentage of Student Participation in the Breakfast and Lunch
Programs
Report 1800 J – Percentage of Student Participation in Breakfast Programs
(Ranked)
Report 1800 K – Percentage of Student Participation in Lunch Programs (Ranked)
Report 1800 I displays total breakfasts and lunches served in October 2013 compared to
the number of meals that potentially could have been served if each student ate one meal
each day in the month that it was offered. The potential number of students that could
have been served was calculated by taking each school offering a school breakfast or
lunch program, and multiplying each school’s enrollment by the number of breakfast or
lunch service days in October 2013.
The average daily participation (ADP) for October 2013 is also shown. The percentage of
students participating in breakfast and/or lunch programs was calculated by dividing the
sum of free, reduced-price, and paid student breakfasts/lunches claimed by the potential
number of meals possible.
