Indirect Rate Calculations

Indirect Rate Calculations

Ensuring Compliance and Financial Efficiency

Indirect rate calculations are a critical component of government contract accounting. They determine how indirect costs are allocated to contracts, affecting profitability, compliance, and contract performance. At Barclay Group LLC, we specialize in developing, calculating, and maintaining compliant indirect rate structures tailored to your business needs.

What Are Indirect Rates?

Indirect rates are used to allocate costs that cannot be directly attributed to a single project or contract. These rates include:

  • Fringe Benefits: Costs related to employee benefits such as health insurance and retirement plans.
  • Overhead: Costs associated with supporting contract performance, such as utilities, office expenses, and indirect labor.
  • General and Administrative (G&A): Expenses related to overall business operations, such as executive salaries, legal fees, and accounting services.

Accurate calculation and application of these rates are essential for compliance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and Cost Accounting Standards (CAS).
