Florida Department of Financial Services, Reference Guide for State Expenditures
Cost Reimbursement Contracts
Invoices for cost reimbursement contracts must be supported by an itemized listing of expenditures by category (salary,
travel, expenses, etc.). Supporting documentation shall be submitted for each amount for which reimbursement is being
claimed indicating that the item has been paid. Documentation for each amount for which reimbursement is being
claimed must indicate that the item has been paid. Check numbers may be provided in lieu of copies of actual checks.
Each piece of documentation should clearly reflect the dates of service. Only expenditures for categories in the approved
agreement budget may be reimbursed. These expenditures must be allowable (pursuant to law) and directly related to
the services being provided.
Listed below are types and examples of supporting documentation for cost reimbursement agreements:
(1) Salaries: A payroll register or similar documentation should be submitted. The payroll register should show
gross salary charges, fringe benefits, other deductions and net pay. If an individual for whom reimbursement is
being claimed is paid by the hour, a document reflecting the hours worked times the rate of pay will be
acceptable.
(2) Fringe Benefits: Fringe Benefits should be supported by invoices showing the amount paid on behalf of the
employee (e.g., insurance premiums paid). If the contract specifically states that fringe benefits will be based
on a specified percentage rather than the actual cost of fringe benefits,then the calculation for the fringe benefits
amount must be shown.
Exception: Governmental entities are not required to provide check numbers or copies of checks for fringe
benefits.
(3) Travel: Reimbursement for travel must be in accordance with Section 112.061, Florida Statutes, which
includes submission of the claim on the approved State travel voucher or electronic means.
(4) Other direct costs: Reimbursement will be made based on paid invoices/receipts. If nonexpendable property
is purchased using State funds, the contract should include a provision for the transfer of the property to the
State when services are terminated. Documentation must be provided to show compliance with Department of
Management Services Rule 60A-1.017, Florida Administrative Code, regarding the requirements for contracts
which include services and that provide for the contractor to purchase tangible personal property as defined in
Section 273.02, Florida Statutes, for subsequent transfer to the State.
(5) In-house charges: Charges which may be of an internal nature (e.g., postage, copies, etc.) may be
reimbursed on a usage log which shows the units times the rate being charged. The rates must be reasonable.
(6) Indirect costs: If the contract specifies that indirect costs will be paid based on a specified rate, then the
calculation should be shown.
Contracts between state agencies,and/or contracts between universities may submit alternative documentation
to substantiate the reimbursement request that may be in the form of FLAIR reports or other detailed reports.
