FAR out Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 I am preparing a cost proposal for a client for overseas work. DBA insurance is applicable and should be proposed per the RFP. The client would like to apply G&A and fee on top of the DBA costs. G&A is fine and is in line with their standard accounting practices but I don't believe applying fee to DBA costs is appropriate. Am I right about the fee? Can someone direct me to where I can find back-up to support not adding fee so I can show the client? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
here_2_help Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 "The cost for DBA insurance—if allocable and reasonable—is a reimbursable cost under government contracts." http://www.acq.osd.mil/dpap/cpf/docs/acq_strategy_defense_base_act_insurance.pdf So treat is as a reimbursable cost. Load it with all applicable burdens. Load it with profit/fee if you think the resulting price will be competitive. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
