Solution
Calculation of Total Indirect Costs:
Indirect Costs include all those costs incurred to the NGO which do not form their major activities but they assist the major activities
I - PERSONAL
A. Salaries and Wages - All Direct, No Indirect Costs.
Total Indirect Costs (Salaries and Wages) = $0
B. Fringe Benefits:
FICA @7.51% of $169000 (Indirect Costs) = $12691
Unemployment Tax @2.70% x$169000 (Indirect Costs) = $4563
All others are Direct, no Indirect Costs.
Total Indirect Costs (Fringe Benefits) = $12691 + $4563 = $17254
C. Consultant & Contract:
Lawyer(retainer) (Indirect Costs) = $5000
Custodial Services @ $90/mos. X12 mos. (Indirect Costs) = $1080
Tax Prep/Bookkeeping @ $400 x 4x per year (Indirect Costs) = $1600
All other are Direct, no Indirect Costs.
Total Indirect Costs (Consultant & Contract) = $5000+$1080+$1600 = $7680
TOTAL INDIRECT COSTS (PERSONAL) = Total Indirect Costs (Salaries and Wages)
+ Total Indirect Costs (Fringe Benefits)
+ Total Indirect Costs (Consultant & Contract)
= $0 + $17254 + $7680 = $24934
II - NON PERSONAL
A. Space:
Rent @ $1500/mos. x 12 mos. (Indirect Costs) = $18000
Telephone & internet @ 200/mos. x 12 mos (Indirect Costs) = $2400
Utilities @ 300/mos. x 12mos. (Indirect Costs) = $3600
Facility Insurance @ 600/year (Indirect Costs) = $600
Total Indirect Costs (Space) = $24600
B. Rental, Lease, Purchase of Equipment:
Word processor/printer (Indirect Costs) = $2000
4 desks w/chairs @ $175/ea. (Indirect Costs) = $525
50 fold up chairs @ $12.50/ea. (Indirect Costs) = $625
Total Indirect Costs (Rental, Lease, Purchase of Equipment) = $3150
C. Supplies:
Office Supplies @ $100/yr. x 4 staff (Indirect Costs) = $400
All others are Direct, no Indirect Costs
Total Indirect Costs (Supplies) = $400
D. Travel:
Reimbursement for Staff auto travel @ $0.20/mile x avg. of 40 miles/mos. x 12mos. (Indirect Costs) = $96
All others are Direct, no Indirect Costs
Total Indirect Costs (Travel) = $96
E. Other Costs:
Board Liability Insurance (Indirect Costs) = $650
All others are Direct, no Indirect Costs
Total Indirect Costs (Other Costs) = $650
TOTAL INDIRECT COSTS (NON PERSONAL) = Total Indirect Costs (Space)
+ Total Indirect Costs (Rental, Lease, Purchase of Equipment)
+ Total Indirect Costs (Supplies)
+ Total Indirect Costs (Travel)
+ Total Indirect Costs (Other Costs)
= $24600 + $3150 + $400 + $96 + $650
= $28896
TOTAL INDIRECT COSTS = TOTAL INDIRECT COSTS (PERSONAL)
+ TOTAL INDIRECT COSTS (NON PERSONAL)
= $24934 + $28896 = $53830 <ANSWER>
