1 DIR Board Meeting | July 17, 2012 Cost-Recovery Fees and Fee Setting Methodology Nick Villalpando Chief Financial Officer

2 Budget Assumptions/Philosophy DIR Board Meeting | July 17, 2012 Cost-Recovery Fees 2 Ninety-eight percent of DIR’s funding comes from fees charged to government entities who use DIR services. Administrative (cost-recovery) fees are set at levels intended to be sufficient to recover DIR’s operating costs. Due to inherent uncertainties with forecasting customer demand for DIR services, actual revenues may be more or less than amounts needed to recover costs for a given year. Costs associated with overhead activities and other functions that DIR is mandated to perform are allocated to each cost- recovery program.
