costs, (3) that similar types of costs have been accorded consistent accounting treatment,
and (4) that the information provided by the grantee/contractor which was used as a basis
for acceptance of the rate(s) agreed to herein is not subsequently found to be materially

Jefferson County
Simplified Indirect Cost Allocation Plan
For Year Ending December 31, 2026
Jefferson County is required to adopt an Indirect Cost Allocation Plan per federal regulations, Title 2 U.S. Code
of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administration Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit
Requirement for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance).
The Jefferson County Auditor's Simplified Indirect Cost Allocation Plan allocates costs for accounting, payroll,
county administration, treasurer, and building depreciation. The simplified format provides an allocation plan
that is easy to comprehend, transparent and allocates costs in a fair and equitable manner.
The costs shown for each county fund/department are the total of 2024 actual expenditures including salaries
and benefits. The calculation for the indirect cost rate is the total indirect cost divided by total direct salaries.
This is a general accounting principle when calculating indirect because direct salaries are consistent
throughout the funds/departments.
There are two sections of the Simplified Indirect Cost Allocation Plan:
1) Countywide Indirect Services —these are activities in the county that serve the county government.
2) Indirect Costs Associated with Direct Services — these are direct services in the county that serve
the citizens of the county and identifiable indirect costs serving the county government.
Column Definitions:
Total Costs — total costs in the general ledger financial statements.
Excluded Costs — specific costs that are already recovered by billing or other means. This is for Indirect
Costs or Direct Salaries/Other Costs.
Unallowable — specific costs that are defined by the Uniform Guidance for which federal funds cannot
be used.
Additional Costs — specific costs that are not identified in general ledger accounting because the
County uses the cash basis of accounting.
Indirect Cost — costs that have been identified as serving county government.
Direct Salaries — salaries and wages identified as serving the citizens of the county.
Benefits/Other Direct Costs — costs associated with personnel benefits and operating costs serving the
citizens of the county.
Audited Financial Statements
Jefferson County is audited annually by the State Auditor's Office. The 2024 Annual report audit has been
completed. There were no findings in financial, single audit (grant) and accountability.
The full financial report and federal single audit report is available on the State Auditor's website,
www.sao.gov.
Indirect Cost Rate Calculation
Identifiable Indirect Cost = $4,044,467
Direct Salaries & Wages = $20,346,028
Countywide Indirect Cost Rate 19.88%
Recommendation 19.38%
The 2026 Cost Allocation Plan based on 2024 Actual Costs has been prepared using the simplified method for
cost allocations.
It is recommended that a .5% reduction in the indirect rate be used as the adopted Countywide Indirect Rate.
This allows for the possibility of a Grantor not approving the use of a calculation as part of the indirect rate
and alleviates possible minor refunds back to a Grantor for revenue received.
This cost allocation considers recovered amounts received as Exclusions, reducing the amount of the indirect
costs available for allocation.
Exclusions and Unallowable Costs
Exclusions are areas identified as countywide indirect services and are considered excluded costs due to
primarily the recovery of costs. Unallowable costs are identified as costs associated with the serving the
community, i.e. contracts. The table below identifies the exclusion and unallowable costs with descriptions
and basis used to calculate.

EXHIBIT
A. Auditor — Accounting
The Accounting division within the Auditor's Office is responsible for the Budgeting, Auditing and Accounting
for the County and some Junior Taxing Districts (a.k.a. agency funds).
The basis for identifying the indirect costs are the number of checks produced and payroll. Of the total
number of checks, the checks were for the departments County Roads, Solid Waste, and Equipment Rental are
counted and related expenditures calculated. These departments' costs are identified as recoverable and
excluded from the cost allocation.
The Accounting staff audits vouchers and processes accounts payable for Jr. Taxing Districts (agency funds).
The allocation of time for these districts is based on 11 hours per month. The associated cost for the districts
is considered direct costs and not allowable for cost allocation.
B. Auditor — Payroll
The Payroll division within the Auditor's office is responsible for payroll, payroll taxes, retirement, medical
insurance and other benefits. The basis of employee hours paid to Roads, Solid Waste, and Equipment Rental
departments are calculated recoverable costs.

FROM: Judy Shepherd, Finance Director
DATE: January 20, 2026
RE: Adoption of the Jefferson County Indirect Cost Allocation Plan for 2026
STATEMENT OF ISSUE:
The Jefferson County Cost Allocation Plan for Indirect Cost for the fiscal year ending December
31, 2026 has been completed and is being presented for approval. Jefferson County is required
to adopt an Indirect Cost Allocation Plan per federal regulations, Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administration Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit
Requirement for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance).
FISCAL IMPACT:
The proposed Jefferson County Cost Allocation Plan provides for Roads, ER&R, and Solid Waste

General Fund. They are the only funds that have been doing this for a number of years. This
will be addressed in 2026 regarding other funds.
In addition, the indirect cost rate will reduce expenditures where applicable, and not limited
to, grant reimbursements and contract billings.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve proposed Jefferson County Indirect Cost Allocation Plan and sign attached resolution.
