Full indirect cost reimbursement must be included in proposal budgets. The full cost incurred by a state agency in providing services or furnishing materials to or for another agency under Chapter 39.34 RCW or any other statute shall be charged to the agency contracting for such services or materials and shall be repaid and credited to the fund or appropriation against which the expenditure originally was charged.
Full costs consist of both direct and indirect costs.
The direct costs are those which are easily identified as being related to a particular project or activity, and include such items as salaries and employee benefits, supplies, and travel. The indirect costs of a project are those costs not readily identifiable with the project, such as administration, building space, equipment use, utilities, janitorial service, accounting, and the like. Both direct and indirect costs are incurred in all projects and together they constitute the total cost of the project. Other Some agencies or programs limit the amount of indirect cost that can be charged by an institution. Agencies normally do not allow indirect costs to be charged on student fellowships.
