Report overhead and labor expenses using specified tax form line mappings and designated survey line items; reconcile survey totals to financial statements or tax returns for the same fiscal year.
Round all reported amounts to the nearest dollar or whole number.
Report specified expense categories on designated survey lines (e.g., rent - building/equipment, repairs & maintenance, insurance, interest, legal/professional fees, dues/publications, bad debts, utilities, office supplies, advertising/marketing, computer expenses, prescription delivery, containers/labels, travel/meals, security, bank charges, credit card processing fees, interior/exterior maintenance, licenses/permits, employee training, continuing education).
Use lines 32a–32r to report other non-labor expenses, provide descriptions and allocation basis for corporate/indirect allocations, and attach additional pages as needed; include examples of corporate allocation descriptions and bases.
Total overhead for Page 8 is line (31) (sum of lines 1–30); continue overhead on Page 9 through line (33) where applicable.
Complete reconciliation on Page 10 to ensure cost survey totals equal totals per financial statements or tax returns for the same fiscal year; when using tax forms, map total expense lines from 2023 forms to survey reconciliation lines.
