The objective of this chap- ter is to establish policies and procedures that shall ensure that DoD Components uniformly and consistently apply pricing principles and methodologies that recoup current period costs and a reasonable contribution to sunk invest- ment costs. Sunk investment costs represent historical decisions to expend R&D funds to develop new equipment or to purchase assets or facilities. Although the original investment decision was based entirely on DoD require- ments, FMS customers benefit from the invest- ment decision when they purchase related equipment, or use of the assets and facilities is necessary in order to provide ordered services or to deliver ordered materiel. Questions concern- ing Chapter 7 should be referred to DoD Deputy Comptroller (Management Systems). 070102. Responsibilities . DoD Components selling materiel or services under authority of the AECA [reference (a)] shall: A. Ensure that materiels and services provided to FMS customers are priced in accor- dance with the policies established in this chap- ter. B. Make reasonable effort to ensure that price estimates provided to FMS customers are a reasonable approximation of the final price. However, the fact that an estimate is not consis- tent with the final cost accumulation does not negate the requirement to establish a final price (actual cost) in accordance with this chapter. C. Establish a single selling price for any item sold, unless DSAA has authorized provision of more detailed cost information to an FMS customer. When appropriate, the item price shall include the additive charge for nonre- curring RDT&E and production costs, recurring procurement support efforts, transportation costs when the DTS is approved and used, etc. D. Present prices of defense articles and services to FMS customers in the format of FMS Letters of Offer and Acceptance and, in general, use the LOA unless a waiver is obtained from the Director, DSAA, to use a suitable substitute instrument. Any substitute instrument should contain the same cost elements as those identified on the LOA.

In the event it is necessary to accomplish new procurement on a reimbursable basis, the procur- ing DoD Component shall obtain obligational authority from the FMS Trust Fund. Payment to contractors for the FMS portion of contracts may not exceed the amount of cash deposited by the FMS customer in the FMS Trust Fund in advance of the payment. F.

CHAPTER 07

PRICING

0701 INTRODUCTION

070101. Objectives. The objective of this chap-ter is to establish policies and procedures thatshall ensure that DoD Components uniformlyand consistently apply pricing principles andmethodologies that recoup current period costsand a reasonable contribution to sunk invest-ment costs. Sunk investment costs representhistorical decisions to expend R&D funds todevelop new equipment or to purchase assets orfacilities. Although the original investmentdecision was based entirely on DoD require-ments, FMS customers benefit from the invest-ment decision when they purchase relatedequipment, or use of the assets and facilities isnecessary in order to provide ordered services orto deliver ordered materiel. Questions concern-ing Chapter 7 should be referred to DoD DeputyComptroller (Management Systems).

070102. Responsibilities. DoD Componentsselling materiel or services under authority ofthe AECA [reference (a)] shall:

A. Ensure that materiels and servicesprovided to FMS customers are priced in accor-dance with the policies established in this chap-ter.

B. Make reasonable effort to ensurethat price estimates provided to FMS customersare a reasonable approximation of the final price.However, the fact that an estimate is not consis-tent with the final cost accumulation does notnegate the requirement to establish a final price(actual cost) in accordance with this chapter.

C. Establish a single selling price forany item sold, unless DSAA has authorizedprovision of more detailed cost information to anFMS customer. When appropriate, the itemprice shall include the additive charge for nonre-curring RDT&E and production costs, recurringprocurement support efforts, transportation costswhen the DTS is approved and used, etc.

D. Present prices of defense articlesand services to FMS customers in the format ofFMS Letters of Offer and Acceptance and, ingeneral, use the LOA unless a waiver is obtainedfrom the Director, DSAA, to use a suitablesubstitute instrument. Any substitute instrumentshould contain the same cost elements as thoseidentified on the LOA. The administrative sur-charge percentage prescribed in this chapter issubject to change without prior approval of thecustomer; therefore, the percentage (for example,3 percent) should not be indicated on the LOA.

E. Cite directly the FMS Trust Fund(97-11X8242) on contractual documents for newprocurements initiated as a result of FMS orders,unless the provisions of paragraph 010402 apply.In the event it is necessary to accomplish newprocurement on a reimbursable basis, the procur-ing DoD Component shall obtain obligationalauthority from the FMS Trust Fund. Payment tocontractors for the FMS portion of contracts maynot exceed the amount of cash deposited by theFMS customer in the FMS Trust Fund in advanceof the payment.

F. The direct cite procedures set forthin subparagraph E., above, shall be used whenmajor items are procured for FMS customers,unless an exception has been granted by theComptroller, DoD.

G. For other than Defense BusinessOperations Fund materiel, ensure that transpor-tation of materiel sold to FMS customers isaccomplished through the use of collect commer-cial bills of lading to the maximum possibleextent. When transportation is accomplishedthrough the use of Government Bills of Lading(GBLs) including Defense Business OperationsFund materiel, the GBL shall be annotated toshow that Section 10721 of the Interstate Com-merce Act of 1887 [reference (m)] is not applica-ble and that normal commercial rates shall bebilled to the U.S. Government for the shipment.

DoD Financial Management Regulation Volume 15, Chapter 7

H. Assign a case manager to eachactive FMS case. This case manager shall beresponsible for the total financial and logisticalaspects of a case. This includes ensuring thatprescribed pricing policies are followed and thatdelivery transactions have been processed toSAAC. The case manager’s authority to directshall be commensurate with these responsibili-ties. The case manager shall be located at anational inventory control point or commandhaving the primary responsibility for implement-ing the case. Refer to Chapter 7 of DOD5105.38-M [reference (e)] for additional discus-sion on case management responsibilities.

I. Price sales to the Special DefenseAcquisition Fund (SDAF) in accordance with theprovisions of this chapter with the exception ofthe charge for nonrecurring costs. Activitiesreporting the sale of SDAF assets to SAAC willapply nonrecurring recoupment costs to the FMSprice charged to the SDAF at the time of sale toa foreign purchaser (see Section 717)

J. Those situations in which the USG"buys back" items from foreign nations initiallysold under FMS programs are not consideredFMS transactions. Once items are sold, any "buyback" is outside of the FMS program and mustbe conducted in accordance with procurementrules involving the obligation of DOD appropria-tions. Monies due as a result of such procure-ment may be paid by the DOD paying office intothe Trust Fund in accordance with the foreigncountry’s instructions.

070103. Estimating Prices for a Letter of Offerand Acceptance

A. The pricing policy of this chapterspecifies how costs are to be determined at thetime the FMS customer is billed. This policy alsoprovides an indication of how a price estimate isto be developed for the Letter of Offer andAcceptance. An essential difference between thebilled price and the estimated price on an offeris the degree of firmness associated with each.On the FMS Billing Statement (DD Form 645),the price, particularly at that point in time inwhich actual costs are known and reported toSAAC, should be firm and exact (the exceptionbeing "E" (Estimated) price code transactions).

The billed cost (except when a rounded dollarindicator code is utilized) is detailed in dollarsand cents. On the LOA, it is to be a reasonableapproximation of the amount which will ulti-mately be billed, with OSD inflation indices andother factors considered. Typically the analystmust make certain assumptions in order to de-velop an estimated price. Amounts to be placedon the LOA will be rounded to the next dollar.Cases are written as either defined order, blanketorder, or Cooperative Logistics Supply SupportAgreement (CLSSA). Pricing for each requiresspecial treatment. Moreover, a case may involvelines which are defined order or blanket orderwhile CLSSA cases have no other lines.

1. Defined Order. Cases forspecified items, services, or training usually arewritten with regard to systems which the U.S.forces are procuring or have procured. Agenciesinvolved in procuring these systems should haveavailable estimates of the expected costs. Theseestimates may be used as the basis for develop-ing the FMS price, but must be validated forconfiguration and for delivery. Applicableadditives detailed in other sections of this chap-ter must be applied. When a price estimate mustbe inflated for delivery of a weapon systemseveral years in the future, use OSD publishedinflation indices. If other factors apply, thosefactors must be documented in case files andjustified for Comptroller, Department of Defenseapproval when submitting Letters of Offer to theDefense Security Assistance Agency for countersignature. When developing an estimate forweapon systems in different configurations thanthose for which service estimates are available, itis advisable to try to obtain contractor estimatesat the contract level required to identify thedifference. See "Military Standard 881A WorkBreakdown Structures for Defense MaterielItems" for the definition of these levels.

2. Blanket Order. Thesedollar-value cases (or lines incorporated insystem sales cases) are written for a category ofmateriel or services with no definitive listing ofitems or quantities. For hardware support items,the price developed may be based on either acomputer listing of specific parts, or a percentageof the cost of the major system to be supported.In other instances, the price on the LOA may

155

Volume 15, Chapter 7 DoD Financial Management Regulation

simply be a dollar-value line to enable the cus-tomer to requisition such items as publications.In this latter case, the amount written into theoffer will be dependent on the estimated activityin the country’s program. In developing a pricefor LOA purposes where a blanket order isinvolved, the source of supply may not beknown. In this case, certain assumptions mustbe made. For example, in writing a blanketorder case for spare parts for an aircraft, anagency may have to assume that all items willcome from stock and each item will be less than$10,000. Except for stock fund/Defense BusinessOperations Fund items, this may allow theanalyst to apply the full packing, crating, andhandling, and transportation charges (NOTE:These two charges are already included in thestandard price for stock fund/Defense BusinessOperations Fund items). However, at the time ofthe billing for delivery of an item charged to thecase, the appropriate surcharge will be appliedin accordance with Chapter 8. Those agenciesthat have developed an ordering history forcertain countries or weapon systems may be ableto develop a ratio of items from procurementand items from stock which enables a moreprecise application of surcharges for the estimate.When developing a price for items to be deliv-ered beyond the period for which pricing data isavailable, it will again be necessary to applyinflation factors as in defined order cases. Oneexception to consider is that once the inflateditem price is developed, then apply the FMSreplacement surcharge for annual procurementappropriation items to insure that the estimateforesees all additives.

3. Cooperative Logistics SupplySupport Arrangement cases may be priced as insubparagraph B. See Section 707 of this Volumefor specific guidance.

B. Individuals involved in preparingLOAs must keep in mind how performance or arequest for reimbursement is going to be report-ed to SAAC following acceptance of the offer bythe FMS customer. The implementing agencymust be able to determine the cost to be billedbased on the provisions of this chapter. Thistask can be particularly difficult when more thanone activity is involved in fulfilling the require-ments of a line or Record Serial Number (RSN)

of a case. The activity preparing the deliverytransactions must be aware of all of the coststhey are to report and also the costs that will beadded by SAAC in accordance with paragraph080501 of this Volume. Cases involving itemswhich must be shipped to one or more activitiesbefore final shipment to the FMS customer canrequire several delivery transactions in order toaccount for all costs. Cases involving majorprocurements may result in a large volume ofprogress payments being submitted. These arenecessary to ensure that the cost balances areadequate to cover costs as they are incurred.The tables in this chapter and Chapter 8 illustrat-ing these reports must be studied care-fully toinsure all costs are correctly reported.

070104. Legal Background

A. General. Section 1 of the AECA[reference (a)] provides that sales are approvedonly when they will further the security objec-tives of the United States and the purpose andprinciples of the United Nations Charter.

b. In the case of a defensearticle intended to be replaced at the time a salesagreement is entered into, the estimated cost ofreplacement of such article, including the con-tract or production costs less any depreciation inthe value of such article.

c. In the case of a sale of adefense service, the full cost to the United StatesGovernment of furnishing such service, unlessthe service is training provided under the termsin subparagraph 3.a. below in which case, onlythe additional costs that are incurred in furnish-ing such assistance are to be recovered.

Such agreements shall include reimbursement forall direct costs but may exclude reimbursementfor indirect costs, administrative surcharges, andcosts of billeting of trainees (except to the extentthat members of the United States Armed Forcesoccupying comparable accommodations arecharged for such accommodations by the UnitedStates). Each such agreement shall be transmit-ted promptly to the Speaker of the House ofRepresentatives and the Committees on Appro-priations, Armed Services and Foreign Relationsof the Senate.

5. Interest. Section 21(d) and22(a) of the AECA [reference (a)] require thatinterest be charged on any net amount by whicha country or international organization is inarrears under all of its outstanding unliquidateddependable undertakings considered collectively.The interest charged shall be at a rate not lessthan a rate determined by the Secretary of theTreasury taking into consideration the currentaverage market yield on outstanding short-termobligations of the United States as of the last dayof the month preceding the net arrearage andshall be computed from the date of net arrear-age.

6. Price of Design and Construc-tion Services. Section 29 of the AECA [reference(a)] requires foreign countries or internationalorganizations to pay the full cost of design andconstruction services and any damages and coststhat may accrue due to the cancellation of suchcontracts when the U.S. Government enters intoa contract for design and construction serviceson their behalf.

Thereciprocal training must be provided within areasonable period of time which may not bemore than one year. If such training is notprovided, then the country or internationalorganization receiving such training shall berequired to reimburse the United States for thefull costs of the training and related supportprovided by the United States.

7. Special Authorities. In con-nection with the administration of the EuropeanAir Defense Agreements, the Secretary of De-fense is authorized under Section 132 of theInternation Security and Development Coopera-tion Act of 1985 [reference (a)] to (1) waive anysurcharge for administrative services otherwisechargeable under Section 21(e)(1)(A) of theAECA [reference (a)], and (2) waive any chargenot otherwise waived for services associatedwith contract administration for the sale underthe Act of Patriot air defense missile fire units tothe Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) contem-plated in the agreements.

8. Fair Pricing. Under sections21 and 43 of the Arms Export Control Act,charges for non-recurring costs are not requiredfor foreign military sales cases wholly fundedwith MAP or non-repayable FMS credits. Inaddition, asset use charges are no longer applica-ble to FMS transactions. In addition, militarysalaries and unfunded costs of civilian retirementand other benefits are not included in the FMSadministrative account. However, when suchexpenses are included in, or are a part of, thestandard prices charged for goods and servicesfurnished by working capital funds, a separateprice shall not be established for sales from, orservices furnished by, working capital funds inconnection with FMS cases and the standardprice shall be charged as is the case with allother sales and services furnished by workingcapital funds.

D. Payment Terms

1. Sales from Stock of DefenseArticles and Services. Payment shall be made inadvance, or if the President determines it to be

in the national interest, upon delivery of thedefense article or rendering of the defense ser-vice. The authority to determine that paymentupon delivery is in the national interest has beendelegated to the Director, DSAA. If billings aremade at delivery, they shall be due and payableupon receipt. Interest shall be charged on anynet amount due and payable which is not paidwithin 60 days. The period may be extended to120 days if a determination is made that emer-gency requirements of the purchaser for acquisi-tion of defense articles or defense services exceedthe ready availability to the purchaser of fundssufficient to pay in full for them within the 60day period. If this is done, the determinationmust be submitted to the Congress along with aspecial emergency request for the authorizationand appropriation of additional funds to financesuch purchases.

2. Sales of New ProcurementItems and Construction Services. Payment shallbe made in advance of the need to meet contractpayments required by the contract and anycharges and costs that may occur from thecancellation of a contract.

3. Authorization and Appropria-tion of Emergency Funds. The President mayissue letters of offer which provide for billingupon delivery of the defense article or renderingof the defense service and for payment within120 days after the date of billing. This authoritymay be exercised, however, only if the Presidentalso determines that the emergency requirementsof the purchaser for acquisition of such defensearticles and services exceed the ready availabilityto the purchaser of funds sufficient to makepayments on a dependable undertaking basisand submits both determinations to the Congresstogether with a special emergency request forauthorization and appropriation of additionalfunds to finance such purchases under the Act.

4. Special Instructions Applica-ble to Section 23 (Credit Sales) and Section 24(Guaranties) of the AECA [reference (a)]

a. Section 23 of the Actprovides the authority to finance sales of defensearticles and defense services to friendly countriesand international organizations, subject to the

160

DoD Financial Management Regulation Volume 15, Chapter 7

availability of appropriations for such purpose.The authority is a method for financing thepayment terms set forth in 1 and 2 above. Thecustomer must repay principal used within 12years after the delivery of applicable articles orthe rendering of the service. The interestcharged shall be at a rate determined by thePresident, except that it may not be less than 5per cent. Currently, such interest on any unpaidbalance is paid at a rate equivalent to the currentaverage interest rate, as of the last day of themonth preceding the financing of such procure-ment, that the United States Government payson outstanding marketable obligations of compa-rable maturity.

b. Section 24 of the Actprovides the President may guarantee loansmade by any individual, corporation, partner-ship, or other juridical entity doing business inthe United States (excluding United States Gov-ernment agencies other than the Federal Financ-ing Bank) to finance FMS purchases or directcommercial purchases by friendly countries andinternational organizations. Funds previouslyobligated under Section 24(c) constitute a singlereserve for the payment of claims under suchguaranties. A fee of 1/4 of 1 percent is chargedon each loan guaranteed.

070105. Crediting of Earned Reimbursements

A. General. DoD appropriation/fund accounts or Miscellaneous Receipts Account3041, "Recoveries Under the Foreign MilitarySales Program," are entitled to reimbursementwhen DoD services or inventory items are soldunder Section 21. An entitlement to reimburse-ment also results from Section 22 procurementactions if direct cite procedures for financingapplicable contracts are not used. The generalrule applicable to the sale of DoD services is thatthe financing account current at the time ofperformance is credited with applicable budgetauthority and subsequent cash collections. Whenitems are sold from inventory, the financingaccount current at the time items are droppedfrom inventory is credited with applicable bud-get authority and subsequent cash collections.When appropriation/fund accounts are used tofinance FMS procurements, the account currentat the time the order is accepted is credited with

budget authority and subsequent cash collec-tions.

B. Elements. The various cost ele-ments which may be involved in performance ofan FMS order and the accounts which are to becredited are shown in Table 701-1.

C. Special Defense Acquisition Fund

1. The International Security andDevelopment Cooperation Act of 1981 enactedon December 29, 1981, [reference (a)] authorizesthe establishment of a Special Defense Acquisi-tion Fund (SDAF). The SDAF is capitalized bycollections that normally would be depositedinto Miscellaneous Receipts Account 3041. De-posits may consist of:

a. Collections made fromsales under letters of offer issued pursuant toSection 21(a)(1)(A) of the AECA [reference (a)]representing the actual value of defense articlesnot intended to be replaced in stock under theterms and conditions of section 114(c(2) of title10 United States Code, which provide for thedeposit of such collections provided that thedeposit does not cause the amount in the SDAFto exceed $1,070,000,000.

b. Collection from salesrepresenting the value of charges for the propor-tionate recoupment of nonrecurring research anddevelopment and production costs.

2. The SDAF has been assignedaccount symbol 11X4116. A monthly report ofdisbursing officer credits to 11X4116 shall beprovided to DSAA. Separate subheads shall beused under 11X4116 to identify the source of thecollections. The subheads that apply are asshown in Table 701-2.

0702 PRICING OF PERSONNEL SERVICES

070201. General. Except for those costs whichmay be excluded from charges in certain caseswhich were discussed in preceding paragraphs,charges to the FMS program for DoD personnel,except for those assigned to DoD training instal-lations or performing contract administration,shall be computed in accordance with this sec-tion. This includes personnel costs recouped asdirect charges, that is, special managementservices, mobile training teams (MTTs), technicalassistance teams (TATs), or technical assistancefield teams (TAFTs). It also includes personnelcosts that are recouped indirectly through theadministrative surcharge. The calculation ofpersonnel costs shall include travel time, bothtemporary duty travel and permanent change ofstation, when the travel directly results fromperformance of an FMS case. The actual hoursof personnel supporting foreign commercialcontracts shall be accumulated and priced at thehourly FMS rates prescribed annually by theOffice of the Comptroller, DoD memorandum.This memorandum is usually issued in Octoberor November. When industr ia l lyfunded/Defense Business Operations Fundpersonnel are utilized other than at the industrialfund site, price civilian personnel using thecurrent annual salary and appropriate accelera-tion factors without overhead costs.

070202. Civilian Personnel. Services performedby DoD civilian personnel shall be priced atstandard pay rates in effect at the time theservices are performed. Tables in Appendix Ccontain the general schedule pay rates. Thestandard pay rates shall be accelerated to recoverthe funded cost of the U.S. Government’s contri-bution for civilian employee benefits, such asretirement, insurance and health plans, cashawards, and, where applicable, the U.S.Government’s share of social security taxes andleave and holidays. Acceleration factors arereviewed by the Office of the Comptroller, DoDand adjusted as appropriate through memoran-da. Factors in effect at the date of this publica-tion are listed on the pay tables at Appendix C.Civilian personnel costs shall be based on anaverage work week of 40 hours. The indicatedpercentages at the bottom of the tables (or thefactors in effect at the time of services, if not in

those tables inclusive time periods) shall be usedfor acceleration factors. The acceleration factorfor leave and holidays shall be applied onlywhen reimbursements are based on time actuallyworked, that is, when the foreign country doesnot otherwise pay for costs incurred during leaveor holiday periods. See paragraph 070104.C.8.for the impact of "Fair Pricing" legislation oncivilian personnel services in calculating chargesfor administrative services under section 21(e) ofthe Arms Export Control Act [reference (a)].Pricing is illustrated in Table 702-1.

070203. Military Personnel

A. Military personnel services shallbe priced using the composite standard pay ratescurrent at the time services are performed.Tables in Appendix C contain the annual payrates. Monthly, daily, or hourly rates can beobtained by multiplying the annual rate by theapplicable factors shown at the bottom of thetable.

B. Since fiscal year 1985, the annualcomposite standard military rates include thecost of retirement. However, these compositerates must be accelerated to recover the cost ofother benefits. Leave and holiday costs areadded when reimbursements are based on timeactually worked, such as when the foreigncountry does not otherwise pay for the personnelcosts incurred by the Department of Defenseduring leave and holiday periods. The additiveamounts for retirement, leave and holidays, andother benefits are expressed as percentages of thecomposite standard pay rate and are listed as theacceleration factors beneath the composite ratesin each table. Pricing computations are illustrat-ed in Tables 702-2, 702-3, and 702-4.

C. For FY 1980 and the prior fiscalyear, the composite standard rate shall also beincreased by the appropriate permanent changeof station (PCS) costs. PCS costs for these yearsare additive after any other increases for retire-ment, leave and holidays, and other benefits.

D. Beginning in FY 1981, PCS costsare included in the composite standard pay ratesin the appropriate tables in Appendix C and aresubject to the acceleration factors beneath the

165

Volume 15, Chapter 7 DoD Financial Management Regulation

pay tables. In situations where military person-nel are required to make a PCS move to supportan FMS case, the PCS rate shall be deleted fromthe composite rate and the actual PCS costcharged to the case. In the latter situation, theactual PCS cost is not subject to acceleration.

E. FMS cases which are fullyfinanced with MAP funds and/or non-repayableFMS credits shall be priced to exclude the cost ofsalaries and entitlements of military members.This is effective in FY 86 for MAP-financed casesand in FY 90 for cases financed by non-repayablecredits. This exclusion applies only toabove-the-line costs and not to associated sur-charges, e.g., military salaries included in theadministrative surcharge, and the contract ad-ministration surcharge.

070204. Indigenous Personnel. Indigenouspersonnel services shall be priced at actual costsor at standard pay rates. Standard pay ratesshall not be used when known to be less thanactual costs. Both actual cost and the standardpay rate shall include an estimated amount tocover such benefits as sick leave, maternity leave,death, accident, unemployment, and retirement(separation) when such benefits are paid toindigenous employees or specifically required bythe laws of the foreign government.

070205. Travel and Living Allowances. Travel,per diem, living allowance payments, and otherentitlements to DoD personnel working on FMScases shall be identical to the payments andentitlements of DoD personnel working on directDoD mission assignments at similar locations.The FMS case shall be priced to include theamount paid to employees or centrally fundedthrough authorized DoD entitlement programs.

070206. Special Instructions Applicable toIndustrial Funds/Defense Business OperationsFunds. Industrial fund/Defense Business Opera-tions Fund facilities will charge applicable ap-proved non-DoD stabilized inventory rates andprices for services in support of FMS casesexcept where special rates may be applicable.

0703 CASH SALES OF DEFENSE ARTICLESISSUED FROM STOCK

070301. General. Section 21 of the AECA[reference (a)] authorizes the sale of defensearticles from stock to eligible foreign govern-ments and international organizations. Thesesales include all sale of items from DoD invento-ries, whether delivered from storage or fromprocurements that were initiated to maintainadequate DoD inventory levels. Procurementsspecifically for FMS requirements (excludingcooperative logistics supply support arrange-ments) may not be considered a sale from stock.Procurements initiated to replace stocks soldfrom DoD inventories are not FMS newprocurements.

070302. Sale Price of Nonexcess Materiel

A. Nonexcess defense articles areassets within the approved force acquisitionobjective and approved force retention stock ofall DoD Components as defined in DoD Direc-tive 4100.37 [reference (o)]. Also included in thenonexcess category are articles procured inanticipation of military assistance or sales re-quirements as a result of cooperative logisticssupply support arrangements, or pursuant to amilitary assistance or sales order. The sellingprice shall be determined when (1) a requisitionis edited for shipment by the shipping activity,or (2) the Letter of Offer is prepared, if a firmprice is determined in accordance with theprovisions of paragraph 070303.

B. Sale of Defense Business Opera-tions Fund Items

1. The selling price of DefenseBusiness Operations Fund issues to FMS custom-ers shall be the current Defense Business Opera-tions Fund price. Shipments from inventory tonon-Cooperative Logistics Supply SupportArrangement (non-CLSSA) customers and toCLSSA customers where requisitions are re-ceived in advance of achieved inventory stocklevels shall be made only when on-hand service-able inventories of the items being sold areabove the item’s reorder point on the day theitem is dropped from inventory, except as indi-cated below (see Table 703-1).

2. The inventory manager withfirst level supervisor coordination may approvethe issue of stocks below the reorder point tonon-CLSSA customers when directed by theDirector, DSAA, or when he or she determinesthat there will not be an unacceptable impact onU.S. forces or CLSSA customers.

a. If issuance was directedby DSAA and would impact adversely U.S.Armed Forces or CLSSA customers, the ICP shallidentify the need for diversion and provideimpact data through appropriate DoD Compo-nent channels to the Director, DSAA. DoD5105.38-M, Paragraph 60003.E [reference (e)] pro-vides additional details on processing suchimpact statements.

b. If it is imperative thatstock be replaced through acceleratedprocurements and normal pricing policies willnot adequately recoup replacement costs, anexception to DoD pricing policies shall be re-quested from Comptroller, DoD. Section 719 ofthis Volume provides guidance on exceptionrequests. Normally, the exception would be toeither add a replacement factor or delay finalpricing until the contract for replacement itemsis financially complete.

3. Each Defense Business Opera-tions Fund organization shall review annuallythe items under it’s control to determine if silveror other reclaimed precious metals were provid-ed to the contractor as government-furnishedmateriel (GFM). A special FMS pricing tableshall be established for those items that containreclaimed precious metals. The price in the FMSpricing table shall be increased annually toreflect the June 30 market price of the preciousmetal. For example, if an item contains 10ounces of reclaimed silver and the market priceof silver on June 30 increased by $6.00, then theitem’s selling price shall be increased by $60.00

4. If a customer returns a repa-rable Defense Business Operations Fund item forrepair or replacement, overhaul service shall bepriced in accordance with paragraph 070802.Under no conditions shall the customer be

171

Volume 15, Chapter 7 DoD Financial Management Regulation

granted a credit for this carcass which is to beapplied against the selling price determined insubparagraph B.1, above. Credit would repre-sent U.S. procurement of FMS customer-ownedassets, and such procurements cannot be min-gled with the FMS program.

5. As an invested participant, aCLSSA customer may return a fully serviceablereparable item to the Defense Business Opera-tions Fund for credit, when the item is withinthe approved acquisition objective (AAO), pro-viding the requirements of paragraph 070102.J.are met. The credit will only be issued after theitem is received at the depot. Funds creditedmay be paid by the DoD paying office into theTrust Fund in accordance with the foreigncustomer’s instruction.

C. Sale of Investment (ProcurementFunded) Items. As indicated previously, whenan item is sold from the stocks of the Depart-ment and that item is not intended to be re-placed, except for amounts which may be credit-ed to the Special Defense Acquisition Fund, theamounts received as payment for that item fromthe FMS customer are required to be depositedinto the miscellaneous receipts of the Treasuryunder the provisions of 10 U.S.C. 114(c)(2).Therefore, in the case of such sales, it is neces-sary to decide whether an item will be replacedor not. An item may be replaced either "in kind"or with an improved model of the item sold.Thus, the sale of a C-130B and the replacementof that aircraft with a C-130B would be an "in-kind" replacement. The replacement of theaircraft with a C-130E would be a replacementwith an improved model. Both of the caseswould be a replacement. On the other hand, thesale of a C-130B and the substitution of a totallydifferent kind of aircraft would not be a replace-ment. Similarly, the purchase of an upgradingor modification kit, would not be a replacement,even though the upgrade or modification wouldresult in an end-item similar to ones beingacquired or that could be acquired. For instance,the procurement from the proceeds of the sale ofan M-1 Tank in the inventory of a modificationkit to an M-1 Tank currently in the inventory toupgrade an existing M-1 to an M-1A Tank wouldnot be a replacement even though the procure

ment of a new M-1A tank to replace the M-1sold would be a replacement.

1. Investment Item Not to beReplaced. When an item is not to be replaced,the price of the item is not less than the actualvalue of the article. Except as provided insubparagraph b., this price is determined asfollows:

a. When a determination ismade that a procurement funded item will notbe replaced, the price of the item shall be themost recent actual procurement cost of the"series" and "model" being sold, plus the cost ofany modifications or improvements incorporatedafter production. Reductions to the sale pricemay be made when there is an actual differencein utility or desirability among units of issue ofan item due to age or condition. The cost of thelast major overhaul or outfitting accomplishedbefore the sale date is added to the calculatedprice and is not reduced for age or condition.The overhaul costs will be pro-rated over theinterval between the last actual overhaul and thenext scheduled overhaul. If a future overhaul isnot scheduled, the cost of the last overhaul willbe prorated over the normal average intervalbetween overhauls. If an overhaul schedule isnot available, the most appropriate time span forthat series and model should be used. In thecase where actual costs are not available for thelast overhaul, a reasonable estimate from thefacility normally performing overhauls for thetype of item to be sold may be used. In the casewhere a maintenance schedule has not beenestablished, a period of at least five years shouldbe used. An illustration of price computation isat Table 703-2. A request for waiver of theoverhaul cost may be submitted to Comptroller,DoD, Accounting Policy, with a copy to theComptroller, DSAA.

b. In the case of a navalvessel that is 20 or more years old, and 3,000tons or less, section 21(a)(2) of the AECA [refer-ence (a)] provides that the actual value is notless than the greater of the scrap value or the fairvalue (including conversion costs) as determinedby the Secretary of Defense.

172

DoD Financial Management Regulation Volume 15, Chapter 7

2. Investment Item to be Re-placed. When a determination is made that anitem is to be replaced, the price of the item is tobe the estimated cost of the replacement, includ-ing the contract or production costs of the articleless any depreciation in the value of the article.This price is determined as follows:

a. Determine the normaluseful peacetime life of the item or equipment tobe sold.

b. Determine the percentageof useful life remaining on the item.

c. Apply the percentagedeveloped in paragraph C.2.b., above, to theestimated (or actual) cost of the replacementitem. The resultant amount is the base cost to beused in the sale price calculation. Under nocondition shall the sale price be lower than thescrap value plus the cost of the last major over-haul or outfitting accomplished within 24months before the sale.

d. Examples of price com-putations are shown at Tables 703-3 and 703-4.

3. When a determination ismade under subparagraph C.2, above, the FMSselling price on the Letter of Offer to the Pur-chaser shall be the best estimate available.However, once the item is dropped from inven-tory, a final bill shall be assessed the purchaserutilizing the best pricing information available ifactual replacement procurement cost is notknown. This shall be the final cost to the pur-chaser regardless of the actual cost of finalreplacement procurement. Inventory managersmust realize that this prescribed pricing method-ology may not result in a one for one replace-ment. If exact quantities are needed in inventoryin order to maintain readiness, then the invento-ry manager must recommend FMS procurementand not approve a shipment out of stock.

D. Sale of Ammunition. The sellingprice of an ammunition item shall be the currentstandard price and any applicable nonrecurringcost recoupment charge for the item beingshipped to the customer.

070303. Quotation of Firm Prices

A. DoD Components are authorizedto quote firm prices for items to be sold fromstock and for in-house services to be furnished,pursuant to Section 21 of the AECA [reference(a)]. Such prices are not subject to further ad-justment, provided the purchasing nation acceptsthe LOA before the expiration date. A firm pricemay be quoted only for:

1. An actual or estimated re-placement price for a procurement funded enditem, including ammunition, or major items to besold from inventory as authorized in paragraph070302.C.2, provided the price is based on bud-getary data or contractor quotation.

2. A price for a procurementfunded or major item developed under provi-sions of paragraph 070302.C.1. and 070304.

3. Training tuition rates (onlyfor current year).

B. The objective of quoting firmprices is to minimize difficulties that might ariseshould prices undergo several revisions, due tobudgetary decisions made subsequent to countryacceptance of Letters of Offer. Firm prices maybe quoted only after careful and coordinateddevelopment of such pricing data. Letters ofOffer (other than for training) which specify firmpricing must be coordinated, at a minimum withthe Military Comptrollers, DSAA, and the Officeof the Comptroller, DoD.

C. All Letters of Offer authorized tobe on a firm price basis shall include a notewhich specifies that pricing data presented arefirm (except for changes authorized in paragraph071006) and will not be changed, provided thecountry accepts the Letter of Offer before itsexpiration date.

070304. Excess Materiel

A. Excess equipment shall be sold inan "as is" condition. Excess defense articles areassets in excess of the approved force acquisitionobjective and approved force retention stock ofall DoD Components (see paragraph 070302 for

173

Volume 15, Chapter 7 DoD Financial Management Regulation

additional discussion). The cost of repairing,rehabilitating, or modifying such articles shall becomputed in accordance with paragraph 070802.The selling price of excess materiel, exclusive ofrepair or modification costs, shall be the highestof (1) its market value (which includes nonrecur-ring costs as computed in paragraph 070305) ashardware, or (2) its scrap value plus nonrecur-ring costs and the last major overhaul costsincurred (the overhaul costs will be pro-ratedover the interval between the last actual over-haul and the next scheduled overhaul. If afuture overhaul is not scheduled, the cost of thelast overhaul will be pro-rated over the normalaverage interval between overhauls. In the casewhere actual costs are not available for the lastoverhaul, a reasonable estimate from the facilitynormally performing overhauls for the type ofitem to be sold may be used. In the case wherea maintenance schedule has not been established,a period of at least five years should be used.An example of computing these costs is illustrat-ed at Table 703-5), or (3) its fair value (plusnonrecurring and pro-rated major overhaulcosts) computed using the fair value rates con-tained in this subsection. A request for waiverof the overhaul cost may be submitted to theOffice of the Comptroller, DoD (AccountingPolicy), with a copy to the Comptroller, DSAA.Fair value rates are applied to the establishedinventory price and follow:

C. When accountability for excessitems has been transferred to "Property Dispos-al," the provisions of DoD Instruction 7310.1[reference (q)] shall apply. This Instructionprovides specific guidance in the disposition ofamounts realized from the sale of such equip-ment.

D. A request for exception to estab-lished pricing policy of excess material forForeign Military Sales will be submitted to theDoD Comptroller for approval with a copy tothe Defense Security Assistance Agency. Therequest must address the following:

1. Whether the item has beenscreened for potential sale to customers andwhether there is any existing customer interest atthe price determined in accordance with theestablished pricing policy;

2. Whether the alternativeproposed price is equal to or greater than thescrap value plus the established recoupmentcharge for DoD’s nonrecurring costs;

3. Whether demilitarization costswill be incurred by the DoD if the item is soldand, if so, the estimated amount of such demili-tarization costs;

4. What the price to repair theitem would be and its relationship, as a percent-age, to the original acquisition cost of the item;and

5. Whether the proposed salehas any other economic or political benefit to theDoD and/or the United States Government.

070305. Charges for Nonrecurring Cost

A. Non-USG purchasers shall pay afair price, determined in accordance with DoDDirective 2140.2 [reference (r)], for the values ofthe DoD nonrecurring investment in the devel-opment and production of Major Defense Equip-ment, as required by law, unless a nonrecurringcost (NC) recoupment charge waiver has beenapproved by the DoD official designated inSection E of DoD Directive 2140.2. The policy inDoD Directive 2140.2 applies to Major DefenseEquipment developed with U.S. Governmentfunds. For FMS, an NC recoupment charge isapplicable to all MDE. Major Defense Equip-ment is any item of Significant Military Equip-ment (SME) listed on the United States Muni-tions List having a DoD nonrecurring Research,Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT&E) costaccumulation of $50 million or a total DoDproduction cost of more than $200 million.

B. For determining the pro rata shareof NC to be recouped, a cost pool methodologyis used. The NC recoupment charge computa-tion (nonrecurring RDT&E and nonrecurringproduction cost pools divided by benefitingunits) are submitted to the Director, DSAA, forapproval. The NC recoupment computationshall be supported with the MDE calculationworksheet illustrated at Table 703-9. A summaryreport on each MDE item shall be provided toDSAA following the report format at Table 703-10. The Director, DSAA, will review each DoDComponent’s calculations and publish the chargein the SAMM [reference (e)].

C. Each DoD Component shall estab-lish a system to accumulate cost pools, recognizewhen a cost pool meets recoupment thresholdsand calculate an NC recoupment charge foritems releasable to foreign countries and interna-tional organizations when FMS sales are antici-pated. The NC recoupment charge shall bebased upon information recorded in DoD ac-counting records or DoD budget justificationdocuments. Cost estimates may be used todetermine the NC expected to be incurred in

periods not covered by budget justificationdocuments.

D. The costs to be included in the nonre-curring RDT&E investment cost pool shall bedetermined on the budget and accounting classi-fications established for research, development,test and evaluation appropriations in DoD7110.1-M [reference (d)]. Paragraph 516.2 ofreference (d) establishes the following researchand development (R&D) categories:

1. Research 6.1. Includes allefforts of scientific study and experimentationdirected toward increasing knowledge andunderstanding in those fields of the physical,engineering, environmental, and life sciencesrelated to long term national security needs. Itprovides fundamental knowledge required forthe solution of military problems. It forms a partof the base for (a) subsequent exploratory andadvanced development in DoD-related technolo-gies and (b) new and improved military func-tional capabilities in areas such as communica-tions, detection, tracking, surveillance, propul-sion, mobility, guidance and control, navigation,energy conversion, material and structures, andpersonnel support.

2. Exploratory Development 6.2.Includes all efforts directed toward the solutionof specific military problems, short of majordevelopment projects. This type of effort mayvary from fairly fundamental applied research toquite sophisticated "breadboard" hardware,study, programming, and planning efforts. Itwould thus include studies, investigations, andminor development effort. The dominant charac-teristic of this category of effort is that it ispointed toward specific military problem areaswith a view toward developing and evaluatingthe feasibility and practicability of proposedsolutions and determining their parameters.Program control of the exploratory developmentelement shall be exercised normally at a generallevel of effort.

3. Advanced Development 6.3.Includes all efforts directed toward projects thathave moved into the development of hardwarefor tests. The prime result of this type of effortis proof of design concept, rather than the devel-

175

Volume 15, Chapter 7 DoD Financial Management Regulation

opment of hardware for service use. Projects inthis category have a potential military applica-tion.

4. Engineering Development 6.4.Includes all projects in full-scale engineeringdevelopment for service use that have not yetreceived approval for production or had produc-tion funds included in the DoD budget submis-sion for the present budget or subsequent fiscalyear. This area is characterized by major lineitem projects, and program control shall beexercised by review of individual projects.

5. Management and Support 6.5.Includes research and development effortsdirected toward support of installations oroperations required for general research anddevelopment use. Included would be test rangesand maintenance of test aircraft and ships, andstudies and analyses in support of the R&Dprogram. Cost of laboratory personnel, eitherin-house or contract-operated, would be assignedto appropriate projects or as a line item in theresearch, exploratory development, or advanceddevelopment program areas, as appropriate.Military construction costs directly related to amajor development program shall be included inthe appropriate element.

6. Operational System Develop-ment. Includes those projects still in full-scaleengineering development that have receivedapproval for production through the DefenseSystems Acquisition Review Council (DSARC) orother action, or production funds have beenincluded in the DoD budget submission for thepresent budget or subsequent fiscal year. Allitems in this area are major line item projectsthat appear as RDT&E costs of weapon systemelements in other programs. Program controlshall be exercised by reviewing projects individ-ually. The costs incurred for nonrecurring R&Din the first two budget and accounting classifica-tions (6.1 and 6.2) may not be included in thenonrecurring RDT&E cost pool. The advanceddevelopment (6.3) budget and accounting classi-fications is sometimes further broken down into6.3A and 6.3B. Although both types of effort area "proof-of-design" concept rather than the devel-opment of hardware for service use, the 6.3Aclassification is tied strictly to research efforts

that involve the production of breadboards orbrassboards to model all or part of a design.The 6.3B classification may be applied to projectsto produce a prototype which, although notsuitable for fielding, is closer to representation ofan end item for military application. Therefore,costs incurred for nonrecurring R&D in classifi-cation 6.3A may not be included in the nonre-curring RDT&E cost pool. However, costs inclassification 6.3B and the remaining R&D classi-fications are subject to recoupment and shall beincluded in the nonrecurring R&D cost poolsupon which the pro rata charge is calculated.

E. All applicable NC efforts, includ-ing in-house or multiple contractors shall beincluded in the NC cost pool. In other words,the source of the NC effort to develop a productis not relevant to the calculation of the NCrecoupment charge. The costs of improvementprograms that are designed to continuouslyimprove the safety, reliability, availability, andmaintainability of an end item or major compo-nent over the projected life of the item will beshared equitably by all users of the item. Nor-mally, each user will pay a share of the totalannual cost through a Component ImprovementProgram (CIP) or comparable program. Allusers are expected to participate in such a pro-gram. The cost sharing calculation will beestablished at the time the NC cost pool isestablished and the NC recoupment charge isapproved. First, the total life of the item will beprojected, then the point in time when half of allprojected deliveries to non-DoD customers willoccur will be estimated. Using actual cost dataand data from historical files for similar CIP orcomparable programs, the total U.S. investmentcosts over the life of the program will be estimat-ed. The amount of U.S. investment projected tobe incurred up to the previously determinedpoint of half of the deliveries to non-DoD cus-tomers will be included in the weapon systemNC cost pool. The annual cost of operating theCIP or comparable program will be shared inproportion to the number of items in the posses-sion of each user. This will ensure that theremaining costs of operating the CIP or compara-ble program will be shared equally by all usersof the item.

176

DoD Financial Management Regulation Volume 15, Chapter 7

F. The costs to be included in thenonrecurring production cost pool are thosefinanced by, or to be financed in the future by,procurement or operations and maintenanceappropriations that benefit current and futureproduction runs. DoD Directive 2140.2 [refer-ence (r)] provides that the pool shall capturesuch costs as preproduction, special tooling,special testing equipment, production engineer-ing, product improvement, destructive testingand product model production, and testing andevaluation. Other costs may be included if theybenefit both current and future production runs.Descriptions of the major categories of costs tobe accumulated in this nonrecurring cost poolare as follows:

1. Preproduction Cost refers tocost of such activities as tool manufacture andtryout (such as jigs, dies, and fixtures) and theimplementation of layout plans. Also, see item8, License Cost. A lump sum payment is part ofpreproduction cost.

2. Special Tooling Cost refers tothe costs of all jigs, dies, fixtures, molds, pat-terns, taps, gauges, other equipment and manu-facturing aids, and replacement thereof , that areof such a specialized nature that substantialmodifications or alternation of their use is limit-ed to the development of production of particu-lar supplies or parts thereof, or the performanceof particular services. The term includes allcomponents of such items, but does not include:(a) material; (b) special testing equipment, or (c)building and nonserviceable structures (exceptfoundations and similar improvements necessaryfor the installation of special tooling), general orspecial machine tools, or similar capital items.

3. Special Test Equipment Costrefers to the cost funded by procurement appro-priations for either single or multipurpose inte-grated test units engineered, designed, fabricat-ed, or modified to accomplish special purposetesting in the performance of the contract. Suchtesting units comprise electrical, electronic,hydraulic, pneumatic, mechanical, or other itemsor assemblies of equipment that are mechanical-ly, electrically, or electronically interconnected soas to become a new functional entity, causing theindividual item or items to become interdepen-

dent and essential in the performance of specialtest equipment procured with RDT&E appropria-tions.

4. Developmental ProductionEngineering Cost includes the cost of productdesign improvement intended to enhanceproducibility of an item; and examination ofavailable manufacturing processes to determinethe need for new techniques (and their develop-ment, if necessary); the optimum marshalling ofresources for efficient manufacturing (such asoptimum lot size, scheduling, production control,production line design and balancing and plantlayout); and tool design and detailed manufac-turing planning. Although a continuing activity,most of this effort is rightfully considered anonrecurring production cost.

5. Product Improvement issubdivided into six distinct types of effort: (a)safety; (b) cost reduction; (c) reliability, availabil-ity, and maintainability; (d) deficiency correc-tions; (e) compatibility standardization, andsimplification; and (f) new or improved opera-tional capability. Categories (a) through (e) areto be included in the end item nonrecurringproduction cost pool, even though a participat-ing product improvement program has beenestablished that pro rates annual cost of theprogram based upon worldwide asset position(both U.S. and foreign-owned end items). TheDoD cost of category (f) shall be recovered aspart of the selling price of a modification kit, ifthe kit is an MDE. Product improvement pro-grams may be accomplished by contractors as anengineering change proposal (ECP), modificationwork order (MWO), or an in-house project.

6. Destructive Testing is atechnique for performing tests on a component,assembly, or an end item. It involves the testingof an article beyond its design limits (and ulti-mately its destruction), or the actual consump-tion of the article to determine if it is performingto design specifications.

7. Pilot Model Testing includesthe following effort:

a. Qualification Testing is avery severe testing to determine if a product will

177

Volume 15, Chapter 7 DoD Financial Management Regulation

do what it is designed to do. It usually involvesthe testing of a product to the limits of its perfor-mance. It is often destructive and the test arti-cles are not intended to be used operationally.

b. First Article Testing Costis the cost of testing to evaluate a newmanufacturer’s ability to produce a specifieddesign (could be the new manufacturer’s designor that of another manufacturer). It is normallymore stringent and costly than routine accep-tance testing, but less stringent and costly (andless destructive) than qualification testing.

8. License Cost refers to the costof the license DoD shall obtain to allow competi-tive awards for production of an item when itsdesign is owned by a contractor. In effect, theDepartment of Defense buys the rights to allowother contractors to produce an item for DoDpurposes through the payment of royalties or alump sum fee. These royalties are customarilyon a per-item basis and should be charged asrecurring production costs. The lump sum fee isa nonrecurring production cost.

G. In computing nonrecurring costpools for items to be sold under FMS, nonrecur-ring costs for major components that are restrict-ed to U.S. Government use only shall not beincluded. For example, the costs of nucleardevices and features, countermeasure devicesand features, security devices (black boxes),carrier-peculiar adaptations, and special fuel tankdevices shall be excluded. Estimates may beused if accounting records do not identify associ-ated costs.

H. The number of items that shallinclude all known or projected DoD productionquantities shall be determined as follows.

1. The production quantities ofend items required by the Department of De-fense shall be obtained from either SelectedAcquisition Reports (SARs) or the Five YearDefense Program (FYDP), Procurement Annex.

2. The production quantities ofend items to be procured for foreign countries orinternational organizations under security assis-tance programs shall be obtained from DoD

Component security assistance plans.

3. The production quantities ofend items to be produced by contractor forcommercial sales may be obtained from thecontractor and validated by contracting officers.The contractor’s estimate shall be required onlyif the applicable commodity manager determinesthat a potential exists for significant commercialsales.

4. In the event end item data isnot available from any of these sources, thedeveloping command shall estimate the totalnumber of end items to be produced.

5. The production quantities ofsystems components that meet the investmentthreshold shall be derived from the number ofend items to be produced. For example, if 100aircraft shall be produced (including engines)and spare part support requires 150 engines, theproduction quantity of engines is 250.

I. In the event of a disagreement onthe production quantity and sales projections, theDirector, DSAA, shall make the final determina-tion, in coordination with the Office of theComptroller, DoD, and OUSD(A), as to theproduction estimates to be used for determiningthe NC recoupment charge.

J. The approved pro rata charge shallbe recouped, unless a waiver is authorized.When nonrecurring cost recoupment is applica-ble, the price in a Letter of Offer and Acceptanceshall provide for the specific recoupment charge.In instances where the initial rate has not yetbeen approved, DoD Components shall providefor an initial rate based on an estimation of thebest information available to the DoD Com-ponent. The LOA shall be modified to providefor the subsequently approved rate and only thatapproved rate is to be billed. When a recoup-ment charge is revised, the previous value isretained in the appendix for information. Subse-quent revisions to the pro rata charge shall beapplied to new LOAs and shall not be retroac-tive.

178

DoD Financial Management Regulation Volume 15, Chapter 7

K. When the price is reduced becauseof age, condition, or supply status (excess), thesame percentage reduction shall be made to thepro rata share of nonrecurring costs.

L. DoD Directive 2140.2 [reference(r)] requires a biennial review of approved MDEcharges to determine if there has been a signifi-cant change in factors or assumptions used tocompute the currently approved recoupment fora model. A significant change occurs when (1)a new calculation shows a change of 30 percentof the current system NC charge for an MDEitem or (2) the NC unit charge increases ordecreases by $50,000 or more or (3) where thepotential for a $5 million change in recoupmentexists or (4) for ammunition items, the potentialexists for additional recoupment of over $100,000or more. A revision to the NC recoupment forMDE will not be applied retroactively to signedLOAs. Rather, the new charge applies to allsales following the date of approval.

M. When a model change occurs, theNC recoupment charge shall be recalculated.That portion of the NC which benefits only onemodel shall be allocated only to that model.That portion of the NC that benefits old and newmodels shall be prorated between cost poolsrelated to the old and new model items. Com-monality between old and new models may bedetermined either on the basis of the ratio of oldmodel parts in the new item or on some othercommon acceptable basis for allocation of costsbetween the models, i.e., engineering analysis ortechnology analysis, as appropriate. Samplecalculations are illustrated at table 703-13.

N. While a change may be submittedat any time by a DoD Component, it is manda-tory that a modification be submitted when asignificant change occurs.

O. Reporting Nonrecurring CostRecoupment Collections.

1. Funds collected for NCrecoupment charges shall be disposed of inaccordance with paragraph 070105 of this Vol-ume.

2. DoD Components shall

provide a quarterly report on the status ofnonrecurring cost collections. The format is atTable 703-12. The report shall be forwarded tothe DSAA Comptroller within 45 days followingthe close of each fiscal quarter, with a copyfurnished to the Defense Finance and AccountingService (DFAS-HQ/ARS). DoD Componentsshall maintain records of anticipated and actualnonrecurring cost collections for FMS cases andknown direct commercial sales (prior to October7, 1992). Data on direct commercial sales may beobtained from export licenses or from otherinformation provided by DSAA. Reports shouldbe in agreement with amounts deposited to theTreasury miscellaneous receipts account.

P. Waivers.

1. The Director, DSAA, is thewaiver approval authority and will state inwriting any approvals granted for waiversassociated with FMS. A notification of eachapproved waiver will be forwarded to theComptroller, DoD and to the concerned DoDComponent by the approving authority.

2. The decision on any waiverrequires the concurrence of the Director, DSAA;the Comptroller, DoD: and the USD(Acquisition).If an issue concerning the waiver request cannotbe resolved, the Director, DSAA, shall preparean action memorandum on the waiver request tothe Deputy Secretary of Defense for final deter-mination. The action memorandum to theDeputy Secretary of Defense shall be coordinatedwith the Director, DSAA, the Comptroller, DoD,and the USD(Acquisition).

Q. Articles delivered after November30, 1989 under FMS cases fully financed withMAP funds and/or nonrepayable FMS creditfunds shall be priced to exclude the NC charge.

R. The established NC recoupmentcharge shall be included in the FMS unit price.

S. The Director, Defense ContractAudit Agency, shall ensure that any evaluationof a contractor accounting system includes ananalysis of the internal controls established toensure compliance with the requirement to pay

179

Volume 15, Chapter 7 DoD Financial Management Regulation

NC recoupment charges for sales made prior toOctober 7, 1992. If DCAA audit work on a bidproposal, claim for incurred costs, etc., disclosescontractor noncompliance with the requirement

to pay an NC recoupment charge, an auditreport shall be issued promptly to the cognizantDoD contracting officer, with a copy of thereport submitted to the DFAS-HQ/ARS andDSAA(COMPT).

TABLE 703-5 PRICE COMPUTATION OF OVERHAUL COSTS PREVIOUSLY INCURRED FOR APROCUREMENT FUNDED ITEM SOLD TO FOREIGN MILITARY SALES CUSTOMERS

Assume the following:

1. Aircraft A, tail number 26 is to be sold in May 1991. The last overhaul for that aircraftwas accomplished in August 1990 at a cost of $640,000.

2. The normal interval between overhauls for aircraft A is 60 months.

The price is computed using the following steps:

1. Determine the actual interval since the last overhaul in terms of months:

August 1990 to May 1991 equals 9 months.

2. Determine the percentage of overhaul costs applicable to the DoD by comparing the actualinterval since the last overhaul with the normal interval between overhauls.

Actual Interval = 9 months = 15%Normal Interval 60 months

3. Determine the amount of the costs to be charged to the customer by subtracting the resultingpercentages in step 2 from 100 percent and applying the result to the overhaul costs. If actualoverhaul costs are not known, a reasonable estimate should be obtained from the facilitynormally performing overhauls for the type of item that is to be sold.

100% -15% = 85% x $640,000 = $554,000

DoD Financial Management Regulation Volume 15, Chapter 7

0704 CASH SALES OF DEFENSE ARTICLESFROM NEW PROCUREMENT FOR DIRECTDELIVERY AND PARTICIPATION IN NEWPRODUCTION

070401. General. Defense articles procured forcash sales to an eligible foreign government orinternational agency, pursuant to Section 22 ofthe AECA [reference (a)], for direct delivery shallbe priced to recover full contract cost to theDepartment of Defense, DoD recurring contractsupport costs, and applicable DoD surcharges.Revised costs may need to be reflected from timeto time in order to indicate increases due toescalation of labor and materials or to reflectother changes in production and procurementcosts. The purchaser shall be obligated to payany damages or costs that may accrue from thepurchaser’s cancellation of the contract. Theadministrative charge (see paragraph 070602)shall be added to the contract cost and includedin billings for incurred costs. An illustration ofthe price computation is at Table 704-1.

070402. Items to be Replaced by Later Produc-tion (Diversions). Sale of items from new pro-duction and procurement, when such items arediverted from Military Department deliveryschedules to be replaced by later production,shall be priced at current production cost orreplacement production cost, whichever is high-er.

070403. Cost Principles

A. In general, DoD articles shall bepriced on the basis of the same cost principles asare used in pricing DoD contracts covering itemsfor DoD use. However, recognition shall begiven to other reasonable and allocable con-tractor costs and risks to the extent permitted inthe Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) [refer-ence (g)].

B. Unless the provisions of Section22b of the AECA are involved, when insufficientfunds are available in the FMS Trust Fundaccount of a foreign government to meet currentcash requirements, DSAA shall initiate, throughthe responsible DoD Component, terminationsfor convenience or other adjustments to selected

contracts that will balance current cash require-ments with available funds. Special attention isdirected to Section 502 of this Volume. Thiscondition should not occur without notificationto the FMS Customer. Before terminating underthese conditions, the contracting officer shalldetermine whether or not the contractor iswilling to continue performance at his or herown risk. If the contractor is so willing, anappropriate contractual agreement shall bebilaterally signed so as to (a) limit thegovernment’s contractual liability to the availablefunds; (b) provide for appropriate passage oftitle to the FMS customer for any materiels orservices that have not been accepted but may becovered by progress payments, partial payments,or reimbursed costs; and (c) provide for anequitable adjustment in the event the terminationfor convenience is not issued in favor of contin-ued performance. When other forms of contrac-tual adjustments are used, they shall provide forequitable adjustment as appropriate and aspermitted by reference (g).

070404. Recovery of Nonrecurring RDT&E andNonrecurring Production Costs. The price shallinclude recovery of nonrecurring research anddevelopment test and evaluation, and nonrecur-ring production costs as specified in DoD Direc-tive 2140.2 [reference (r)]. Paragraph 070305contains further discussion of these costs.

070405. Recovery of Contract AdministrationServices Costs Incurred in Support of NewProcurements for FMS

A. General. The cost of contractadministration services functions as identified inthe FAR [reference (g)] and contract audit shallbe recovered through the application by theSAAC of a percentage surcharge to the deliverytransactions reflecting disbursements to contrac-tors for FMS procurements on which applicablecontract administration services have not beenwaived. This surcharge is subject to waiver inwhole or in part under Section 21(h) of theAECA [reference (a)](see paragraph 070104.C.3.of this Volume), and is waived in its entirety forthe NATO E3A Cooperative Program (see para-graph 070104.C.2.). A listing of waived pro-grams is included in Section 1301 and Table1301-1 of DoD 5105.38-M [reference (e)]. The

197

Volume 15, Chapter 7 DoD Financial Management Regulation

surcharge shall be reviewed annually by theOffice of the Comptroller, DoD to determine if itshould be changed. The amounts collected as aresult of the application of the surcharge shall becredited to a surcharge account maintained bythe SAAC and used to reimburse DoD Compo-nents for contract administration services per-formed.

B. Responsibilities.

1. The Office of the Comptroller,DoD shall review annually the contract adminis-tration surcharge and revise as necessary.

2. The Security AssistanceAccounting Center (SAAC) shall:

a. Establish and maintainthe contract administration services account.

b. Maintain a list of FMScases for which complete or partial waivers ofthe contract administration costs have beengranted.

c. Apply the prescribedsurcharge, or the applicable portion in the caseof partial waivers, to reported disbursementsfrom delivery transactions received on or afterOctober 1, 1980, for all FMS cases that are notincluded on the waiver list (see subparagraphB.2.b., above) with delivery source codes BB, DA,DB, DC, DD, DE, DK and ED and price code N(see paragraph 080402).

d. Pay DoD Componentsfor billing of actual contract administrationservices costs.

e. Increase the amountbilled to FMS customers as a result of disburse-ment to contractors by the amount derived byapplying the surcharge percentage to thesedisbursements.

C. Prescribed Contract Administra-tion Services Surcharge.

1. The following surcharges areprescribed for SAAC application to disbursementwith reimbursable codes and delivery source

codes described in subparagraph B.2.c., above(NATO E-3A Program is exempt):

Quality Assurance and Inspection 0.5%Other Contract Administration Services 0.5%Contract Audit 0.5%Total 1.5%

2. If no waiver has been grantedpursuant to Section 21(h) of the AECA [reference(a)], SAAC shall apply the full 1.5 percent sur-charge. Waiver of the charges for either thequality assurance and inspection, contract ad-ministration services, or contract audit underSection 21(h) of reference (a) shall result in theSAAC application of the remaining surcharges.For example, if quality assurance, inspection, andcontract audit costs are waived, SAAC shallapply the 0.5 percent surcharge for "other con-tract administration services." SAAC shall usethe list referenced in paragraph B.2.b., above, asa basis for determining charges. Any cases noton this list shall be assessed the full amount ofthe surcharge. The waived contract administra-tion cost for FMS cases included on the list shallbe charged to DoD appropriations. SAAC shallreject billings from DoD Components for chargesthat have been waived.

070406. Recovery of Contract AdministrationServices Costs Incurred in Support of ForeignCountry Commercial Contracts. DoD support ofcommercial contracts awarded by foreign coun-tries and international organizations representsan FMS sale of services. The manhours expend-ed in support of these commercial contracts shallbe accumulated and billed at an FMS contractadministrative hourly labor rate published eachfiscal year by the Office of the Comptroller, DoD.The hourly rate shall include appropriate chargesfor TDY, use of DoD assets, and unfundedcivilian retirement costs. For further discussionon foreign country commercial contracts, seeSection 205 of this Volume.

070407. Recovery of Costs for Government-Furnished Materiel (GFM)

A. GFM provided from inventoryshall be billed to the FMS case as "work inprocess" when the GFM is shipped from a depotto a contractor (see Table 804-13). The billing

198

DoD Financial Management Regulation Volume 15, Chapter 7

price shall be the same as a direct sale to an FMScustomer, plus applicable accessorial costs. Thevarious categories of accessorial costs and themethod of calculating them are set forth inSection 705.

B. GFM provided from anothercontractor shall be billed to the FMS case as"work in process" when payments are made tothe contractor supplying the GFM. In the eventshipment is through a Government Bill of Lad-ing (GBL), the applicable transportation accesso-rial charge, as set forth in paragraph 070503,should also be billed as "work in process."Contracts with contractors providing GFMdirectly cite the FMS Trust Funds as the financ-ing source to the maximum extent possible.

C. When precious metals recoveredunder the precious metals recovery program areprovided as GFM to a contractor, the materielshall be valued at the market price on the date itis provided to the contractor. Market price shallbe determined from any authoritative publica-tion, such as The Wall Street Journal.

070408. Recovery of Other DoD-Funded Servic-es in Support of FMS Procurements

A. The cost of DoD-providedor-funded engineering services that are requiredto solve problems encountered during the pro-duction run shall be allocated to FMS customersbased upon the number of their items that are inthe production run.

B. If components are procured for anFMS customer and assembled by DoD personnel,assembly labor costs shall be assessed in accor-dance with paragraph 070802.

C. If a contractor is designated as thesource of supply for nonstandard items to beprocured for FMS customers, the contract pricefor applicable items will normally include theadditional cost incurred to research,and procurethe nonstandard items. Any reasonable methodof allocating these additional costs is acceptable.The test of the reasonableness of the contractor’scosting allocation would be acceptance of themethod by the Defense Contract Audit Agency.

070409. Special Considerations. Cost of devia-tions from U.S. Government configuration andspecial technical data desired by a foreign gov-ernment shall be included as a charge to theforeign governments.

0704010. Production by a Foreign Government.When a portion of the production quantity is tobe produced by the purchasing foreign govern-ment, costs shall be computed separately, inaccordance with cost methods established by theforeign government and accepted by the U.S.Government.

0704011. Recoupment of Interest Penalties Dueto "The Prompt Payment Act of 1982" [reference(s)]. Interest penalties incurred on FMSprocurements will be initially financed fromfunds of the paying activity. An analysis of FMSinterest payments will be prepared and submit-ted to the Security Assistance Accounting Center(DFAS-DE/IR (SAAC)) monthly and will identi-fy the country, case, contract number, and reasonfor late payment. See paragraph 021102 of thisVolume.

A. Any interest penalties incurredunder "The Prompt Payment Act of 1982" [refer-ence (s)] will be included in delivery transactionsto SAAC. See Table 804-19.

B. Within 50 days after the fiscal yearends, DoD Components shall submit to DSAA areport of Prompt Payment interest penaltieswhich have been included in deliverytransactions.

0704012. Contract Review. The DoD Compo-nents will make every effort to obtain the finalprice for contract provided items within 180 daysof reported delivery.

0705 ACCESSORIAL COSTS

070501. General. Accessorial costs representcertain expenses incident to issues, sales, andtransfers of materiel which are not included inthe standard price or contract cost of materiel. Adescription of the various types of accessorialcosts which may be applicable to FMS shipmentsfollows:

A. Packing, Crating and Handling(PC&H) Costs. The costs incurred in DoDfacilities for labor, materials, or services inremoving requisitioned articles from storagelocations, preparing them for shipment from thestorage or distribution points, and processingnecessary materiel release confirmation docu-ments. The costs are incurred on all articles soldfrom stock to FMS customers. (Note: Notapplicable to delivery of stock fund/DefenseBusiness Operations Fund items reported afterOctober 1, 1990)

B. Transportation Costs. The cost ofDoD-provided or financed inland transportation(L1A)(land, air, inland and coastwise waterways)in the United States and outside the UnitedStates, and overseas transportation by vessel orair; includes parcel post (L1D) via surface or air.(Note: Inland CONUS (L1A) not applicable todelivery of stock fund/Defense Business Opera-tions Fund items reported after October 1, 1990;Parcel post (L1D) and commercial packagecarrier (L1E) charges are not applicable afterOctober 1, 1991).

C. Port Loading and UnloadingCosts. The cost of DoD-provided or financedlabor, materials or services for loading, unload-ing and handling at ports of embarkation ordebarkation. Transportation charges for the useof the DoD transportation system, as set forth inparagraph 070503 below, include applicableloading and unloading costs.

070502. Packing, Crating, and Handling. Stan-dard PC&H rates will be applied to the sellingprice of materiel sold from DoD inventories torecover the cost described in paragraph070501.A., above. The PC&H rate will not beassessed on DoD stock fund/Defense BusinessOperations Fund items delivered after October 1,

1990 since the costs for PC&H are included inthe standard stock fund/Defense Business Oper-ations Fund price. Additionally, PC&H will notbe assessed on articles shipped directly from themanufacturer since no in-house DoD labor,material, or services are involved. PrescribedPC&H rates are:

A. A PC&H rate of 3.5 percent will beadded to the selling price of materiel with a unitprice of $50,000 or less.

B. An additional charge will beadded equal to one percent of that portion of theselling price of materiel over $50,000.

C. Examples of PC&H price computa-tions follow:

1. Item with a unit price of$8,500:

$8,500 @ 3.5% = $297.50 PC&H charge

2. Item with a unit price of$62,000:

$50,000 @ 3.5% = $1,750.00$12,000 @ 1.0% = 120.00$62,000 $1,870.00

D. The PC&H charge for service/maintenance cases is applied to the unit cost ofthe item (or items) sold or serviced, not the costof the service. The rate in subparagraphs A andB above apply.

070503. Transportation. For other than DefenseBusiness Operations Fund materiel, transporta-tion of FMS materiel shall be on collect commer-cial bills of lading. When transportation shall beaccomplished through a GBL, the GBL shall beannotated to show that normal commercial rateswill be billed to the U.S. Government for theshipment. Section 10721 of the Interstate Com-merce Act of 1887 [reference (m)] is not applica-ble to FMS shipments, including "stock fund"items shipped from the Defense Business Opera-tions Fund.

A. DoD Components shall apply ratescontained in Table 705-1 to the selling price ofmateriel with a unit price of $10,000 or less to

201

Volume 15, Chapter 7 DoD Financial Management Regulation

calculate the cost for billing customers for theuse of the DoD Transportation System. When anitem has a unit selling price over $10,000, theapplicable rate from Table 705-1 shall be appliedto the first $10,000 of the item’s unit cost and 25percent of the same rate to the remainder of theunit price, to estimate a price for the use of theDOD transportation system. For example, anitem priced at $50,000 with a delivery code toNewfoundland would require a transportationcharge of $3,249 ($10,000 at 16.25 percent and$40,000 at 4.06 percent).

B. Costs for the staging of materiel inCONUS DOD (non-Defense Business OperationsFund owned/operated) facilities are additions toDOD transportation system costs, and a 3 per-cent staging charge is applicable, if DSAA hasauthorized "below-the-line" recoupment ofstaging. Defense Business Operations Fundowned/operated facilities shall bill actual costsincurred as an "above-the-line" service. Normal-ly, the actual costs of staging shall be recoveredas part of an "above-the-line" service charge.Such charges shall not be duplicative of anyother accessorial cost. When nonexcess materielis provided from DOD storage points locatedoutside CONUS, the applicable rates (see Table705-1) shall be charged as a prepositioning cost.For example, if the materiel being sold is storedin Germany and costs $10,000 or less, a 14.25percent prepositioning charge would be applied.If transportation to the FMS customer is neces-sary, it normally shall be accomplished throughthe use of collect commercial bills of lading. IfDOD transportation is used to move articlesfrom an overseas storage location to a pointdesignated by the FMS customer, actual orestimated transportation costs shall be billed tothe FMS customer. In estimating the cost ofoverseas DOD transportation, a 3 percent factorshall be used for overseas land transportation, 1percent for overseas port loading, and 1 percentfor overseas port unloading. An actual dollaramount shall be determined by the supplyingDOD Component to recoup the cost of ocean orair transportation.

C. The use of estimated actual charg-es is authorized for certain items approved inadvance by OASD(C) and DSAA when theestablished percentages for use of the DTS are

significantly different from the estimated actualcharges. DSAA will establish and maintain alook-up table to reflect the estimated actualtransportation charges for the DTS shipment ofapproved items. Only items on this look-uptable qualify for the billing of estimated actualrates, unless approval is received from DSAAwith OSD(C) concurrence. See Section 805 ofthis Volume for detailed procedures.

0706 ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGES

070601. General. An administrative surchargeshall be added to all FMS cases (unless therecoupment of administrative expenses has beenwaived pursuant to legal authority, see Para-graph 070104) to recover DoD expenses relatedto the functions of sales negotiations, case imple-mentation, procurement, program control, com-puter programming, accounting and budgeting,Reports of Discrepancy (RODs) administration,and administration of FMS training cases at com-mand headquarters and higher levels. Applica-ble DoD Component costs are recouped in accor-dance with paragraph 070603. The Letter ofOffer and Acceptance payment schedule shallinclude, as a part of the required initial deposit,an amount equal to 50 percent of the administra-tive charge applied to the basic sale price asspecified in paragraph 070602. The remaining 50percent of the administrative charge shall beincluded as equal percentage installments withineach of the estimated payments.

070602. Prescribed Standard AdministrationCharges

A. Supply Support Arrangements.An administrative charge of 5 percent shall beadded to the basic sales price on the initialon-hand portion of Cooperative Logistics SupplySupport Arrangements (CLSSA)(See paragraph070708 for detailed instructions.

B. FMS Orders for NonstandardArticles and Services. An administrative chargeof 5 percent shall be added to the basic sale priceof FMS orders for nonstandard articles andservices, However, the 3 percent administrativecharges shall be applied under the following twoconditions:

1. A contractor is designated asthe source of supply in lieu of a DoD Compo-nent performing additional work for the non-standard articles and services. (See paragraph070408.)

2. A case management line isincluded in the Letter of Offer and Acceptancethat specifically recovers costs associated with

the tasks performed in support of the sale ofnonstandard articles or services.

C. All other FMS Orders. Adminis-trative charges for FMS cases not included inSection A above, are dependent upon the datethe applicable LOA or amendment is signed outby the cognizant Military Department or DefenseAgency. For cost increases within the scope ofthe LOA, modifications retain the administrativerates current at the time the applicable LOA oramendment was signed out. While the followingadministrative rates are applicable for the peri-ods shown below, if an amendment adds a newline to an FMS case implemented prior to Octo-ber 1, 1977, the 3 percent administrative rate isapplicable to the new line:

1. January 29, 1970 - March 9,1977. A 2 percent administrative rate, unless thesupplying Military Department had determinedthat the rate was either insufficient or in excessof actual administrative expense for any singleFMS case. The use of actual FMS case adminis-trative expense was authorized.

2. March 10, 1977 - September30, 1977. A uniform 2 percent administrativerate for offers signed out during this period.

3. October 1, 1977 - Present. Auniform 3 percent administrative rate for offerssigned out after October 1, 1977.

070603. Actual Administrative Expenses. ThoseDoD organizations which provide general ad-ministrative support of the FMS program shallrecoup the full cost (excluding a pro rata shareof fixed base operations costs) of providing suchsupport. Costs charged in connection withadministrative support shall not include costswhich are prescribed in this Volume asabove-the-line costs. Above-the-line costs in-clude (1) contract administration services, seeSection 704; (2) case management, see Section718); (3) recurring contract support costs, seeparagraph 070408, and (4) administration of FMStraining cases at the installation level which areto be included in the tuition rates. Administra-tive support cost also does not include the costof calculating nonrecurring recoupment chargesand royalty fees which is a DoD mission cost.

205

Volume 15, Chapter 7 DoD Financial Management Regulation

A. The personnel portion of actualadministrative expenses shall include a pro ratashare of those personnel who spend 10 percentor more of their time performing FMS duties. Ifan organization’s manpower staffing is basedupon routinely maintained workload statistics(such as the number of travel orders processed),the FMS administrative personnel expense shallbe determined from equivalent FMS workloadstatistics. In other words, if FMS workload is 25percent of total workload, then 25 percent of theorganization’s payroll cost shall be fundedthrough FMS administrative surcharges. Identifi-cation of chargeable personnel in base supportactivities (such as security and civilian personnelspecialists) is determined by the incurrence ofadditional cost to support non-Base OperationsSupport (BOS) FMS administrative activities, andnot by the criteria used in performing an opera-tional audit (e.g., activity frequency, frequencyconversion factor, frequency per month, allowedmanhours per accomplishment, allowedmanhours per month, etc.). These elementswhich are used in measuring manpower require-ments do not in and of themselves prove thatincremental costs have been incurred. Thus,there is a different standard for charging BOSpersonnel, i.e., conclusive demonstration thatactual additional costs are being incurred tosupport non-BOS FMS administrative activitiesversus charging non-BOS personnel a pro ratashare of those personnel who spend 10 percentor more of their time performing (hands-on)duties. The cost of identified personnel shall becomputed in accordance with paragraph 070201.

B. Other actual or estimated actualadministrative costs include:

1. Travel costs, including perdiem and transportation, incurred in the admin-istration of the FMS program which cannot bedirectly related to mission requirements of asingle case or program. (Special care is requiredin this area. See Section 718.)

2. Automatic data processingcosts, excluding equipment cost or depreciationcharges, to support FMS workload based onproration of machine time required to producegeneral FMS reports or transactions.

3. Printing and reproductioncosts incurred primarily for the benefit of theFMS program.

4. Communications, utilities,and office supply costs incurred primarily for thegeneral administration of the FMS program.

5. Equipment costs, both pur-chased and rental, when such costs are specifical-ly incurred to support the administration of theFMS program.

6. Rental charges at fully dedi-cated FMS activities for floor space rental.

7. Administrative costs of Re-ports of Discrepancy (RODs). This cost includesthe "net cost" to the Department of Defense forprocessing RODs for overage, shortage, damage,item deficiency, and duplicate billing. Such costsexclude discrepancies that are attributable todamage or loss, occurring after passage of title.Normally, FMS shipments move from the depotor vendor’s plant on collect commercial bills oflading with title passed at point of origin.However, occasionally shipments move underGovernment Bills of Lading. Under either ofthese conditions, title passes at the point oforigin and if damage or loss occurs subsequentto title passage, payment is not to be made fromthe administrative fund (this is, claims should besubmitted against the common carrier). SeeChapter 8, Section 802 of DoD 5105.38-M [refer-ence (e)], for more detailed information.

C. DSAA shall ensure that an appro-priate share of the cost of Military AssistanceAdvisory Groups and military missions shall becharged to administrative expense.

070604. Administrative Charges on CanceledCases

A. Earned reimbursements for admin-istrative surcharges are normally not refundable,i.e., the 50 percent that is earned when the caseis accepted.

206

DoD Financial Management Regulation Volume 15, Chapter 7

B. The administrative surcharges maybe charged in accordance with the followingguidance:

1. For cases under $25 millionthat are canceled, SAAC shall retain a portion ofthe administrative surcharge that equals one-halfof the applicable administrative percentage of theestimated articles/services ordered value, or theadministrative rate times the actual articles/services delivered at closure, whichever is high-er.

2. For cases over $25 millionthat are canceled, DSAA Comptroller shalldetermine the appropriate administrative charge;however, the charge shall normally be at least$250,000.

C. DSAA may approve waivers orreductions outside of the above parameters ifcircumstances dictate. Such waivers or reduc-tions shall be fully documented and demonstratethat estimated administrative costs incurred onthe case have been recouped.

D. Cases canceled for the convenienceof the U.S. Government will not incur an admin-istrative cancellation fee. DSAA shall make thisdecision.

070605. Waived Administrative Charges

A. General. Cost of administrativeeffort applicable to FMS cases on which thenormal administrative surcharge has beenwaived or reduced, pursuant to statute, must bereimbursed to the FMS administrative surchargeaccount. Therefore, the IA which is the propo-nent of the case on which the charge has beenwaived shall obligate its current operation andmaintenance appropriations for the full amountbeing waived annually. The amount of theearned administrative charges, which is thevalue of the administrative charge (currently 3percent) is to be charged to Program 10. TheSAAC shall then apply the established FMSadministrative surcharge to accrued expendituresrecorded against the case on which the normaladministrative surcharge was waived and submitquarterly SF 1080 "Voucher for Transfer BetweenAppropriations and/or Funds" billings to the

appropriate IA for the amount that would nor-mally be payable by the FMS customer.

B. Fund Control. A recommendationto approve a waiver of the normal administrativesurcharge shall be accompanied by a miscella-neous obligation document which identifies thefinancing appropriation and the dollar value ofthe waiver. The IA shall certify that funds areavailable. The approving officials shall sign theobligating document. The provisions of DoDDirective 7200.1 [reference (f)], "AdministrativeControl of Appropriations," are applicable.

0707 COOPERATIVE LOGISTICS SUPPLYSUPPORT ARRANGEMENTS

070701. General. DoD Directive 2000.8 [refer-ence (t)] prescribes the policies and criteria forestablishing cooperative logistics supply supportarrangements. These cooperative logistics sup-ply support arrangements provide for the execu-tion of Foreign Military Sales Orders (FMSOs)covering stockage, consumption, and storage(Note: There is no annual inventory mainte-nance and storage charge for stock fund/DefenseBusiness Operations Fund items for CLSSAs asthe stock fund/Defense Business OperationsFund standard price recoups all costs). TwoFMS cases are required for supply supportarrangements: the FMSO I and the FMSO II.Both cases shall be executed in order for FMSrequirements to be anticipated and to be satisfiedon an equal footing with U.S. requirements.

A. The FMSO I case is subdividedinto two parts: Part A represents the on-handportion of the inventory (normally 5 months)and Part B represents an on-order dependableundertaking (normally a 12 month period). Bothparts of the FMSO I provide obligational authori-ty equal to its value in the DoD Componentactivity providing the supply support to thecustomer. Cash paid on acceptance of the FMSOI is to equal the Part A on-hand portion of theinventory and administrative surcharge. Thecash required to liquidate obligations incurredwith suppliers for the on-order portion is thecash paid by the customer in connection with theFMSO II case, and in turn creates a new orderreceived and recreates obligational authorityback to the FMSO I.

207

Volume 15, Chapter 7 DoD Financial Management Regulation

B. The FMSO II case represents theforeign customer’s anticipated yearly consump-tion under the cooperative logistics supplysupport arrangement. Cash to cover requisitionsis paid in advance of each quarter covered bythe case.

The cycle of obligation, acquisition, requisition,issuance, and payment can be summarized asfollows:

1. FMSO I, Parts A and B, givethe DoD Components obligational authority upto the case amount.

2. The cash provided underFMSO I, Part A, finances the on-hand inventory.

3. Requisitions made by thecustomer are filled from the on-hand inventory.

4. Replenishment of on-handinventory is made from contracts awarded underobligational authority granted by FMSO I, Part B.

5. Payments to contractors aremade from funds provided in accordance withFMSO II terms.

6. Liquidation of obligations bypayment to contractors in effect recreates obliga-tional authority granted by FMSO I, Part B, andthe cycle commences again.

C. In accordance with the concept,the entire amount of the FMSO I case representsobligational authority. Normally, no cash billingsare required against the FMSO I, Part B, unlessthe cooperative logistics supply support arrange-ment is either partly or wholly terminated. TheFMSO II case provides obligational authorityonly to the extent that cash is received. Thus,proper working of the FMSO I and II shouldresult in a constant 12 months of obligationalauthority in the applicable appropriation or fundaccount, never more or less, after the on-handinventory of FMSO I, Part A, has been acquired.

D. The cash and obligational authori-ty derived from the FMSO I and FMSO II are tobe transferred to the Commodity Command orSupply Agency that is expected to provide

supply support to the foreign country. ThisCommand or Stock Agency shall use such cashand obligational authority to increase stock andon-order quantities in anticipation of requisitionsfrom the country which entered into the supplysupport arrangement.

E. In unusual circumstances, it maybe determined that the 5-month on-hand and12-month on-order levels are inappropriate forthe particular equipment being supported. Inthese circumstances, the on-hand and on-orderrequirements may be adjusted to more realistical-ly reflect the DoD on-hand and on-order levelsfor the items being supported. Documentationin support of such determinations shall beretained by the office that developed the supplysupport arrangement.

070702. Customer Equity. Supply supportarrangements are written in terms of an absolutedollar amount of support to be provided underthe arrangement. A listing of the specific itemsrequired to support the weapon system is notdeveloped. Under this "dollar value" concept,the FMS customer’s equity shall remain valuedat the cash deposited for the FMSO I. Upontermination, a review shall be made of theforeign country’s demand data for specific items.When these demand data result in the procure-ment of stock above the DoD-approved retentionlevels, the foreign country shall be informed thatapplicable stocks owned by that country must bedrawn down or that a settlement agreeable toboth parties must be reached.

070703. Pricing. Paragraph 070302.B sets forththe pricing requirements.

070704. Storage Costs. Storage fees shall becharged based on the on-hand portion of theFMSO I. Normally, the on-hand portion repre-sents 5/17 of the total case value. The annualstorage fee is 1.5 percent. For cases not remain-ing open a full year, a fee of .125 percent amonth shall be charged. (Note: There is noannual inventory maintenance and storagecharge for stock fund/Defense Business Opera-tions Fund items for CLSSAs as the stockfund/Defense Business Operations Fund stan-dard price recoups all costs).

208

DoD Financial Management Regulation Volume 15, Chapter 7

070705. Obsolete Materiel. If an item becomesobsolete or excess to the United States but not tothe foreign government, the United States mayrequest the foreign government to withdraw itsundelivered quantity of the item. Additionalquantities may be offered to the foreign govern-ment at fair value prices (Paragraph 070304.A.,above). If items become obsolete or excess to therequirements of the foreign government but notto the United States, the foreign government mayrequest the United States to consider cancellationof its order and to apply its equity in the unde-livered quantity to subsequent orders for otheritems. If cancellation is not agreed to, arrange-ments shall be made for the United States todispose of the materiel and credit the net pro-ceeds to the foreign government. If the UnitedStates has a need for the materiel, appropriatecredit to the stock level case for return of themateriel to stocks of the United States shall bemade in accordance with the departmentalprocedures for credit allowance for return ofmateriel [see DoD 7420.13-R, reference (u)]. Ifitems become obsolete or excess to the require-ments of both the United States and the foreigngovernment, arrangements shall be made for theUnited States to dispose of the materiel and theproportional share of the net proceeds of saleshall be credited to the foreign government.

070706. Unusual Inventory Loss. Stock lossesdue to enemy action, major disaster, or othercasualty from a natural phenomenon shall beassessed against the foreign government in anamount proportionate to the ratio that the valueof its stock case bears to the total value of stocksin storage.

070707. Normal Operating Inventory Loss. Thestandard prices paid by the foreign governmentfor stock level of stock fund/Defense BusinessOperations Fund items already include in asurcharge for estimated normal operating lossesin storage.

070708. Administrative Surcharge

A. A one-time nonrefundable, ad-ministrative surcharge of 5 percent shall becharged on the on-hand portion (Part A) of theFMSO I case. For amendments that decrease the

value of the on-hand portion (Part A), there shallbe no adjustment made to the administrativesurcharge. However, for amendments thatincrease the value of the on-hand portion (PartA), the 5 percent nonrefundable administrativesurcharge shall be charged on the total value ofthe amendments. Table 707-1 illustrates the 5percent administrative fee computation.

B. No administrative surcharge shallbe charged on the on-order portion (Part B) ofthe FMSO I case. A 3 percent administrativesurcharge shall be charged on requisitions pro-cessed under FMSO II cases. If an FMSO Iagreement is terminated, an administrativesurcharge of 5 percent shall be charged for theinventory over and above the on-hand portion ofthe case. There shall be no additional surchargeon the on-hand portion of the case, since thecustomer has made advance payment of theadministrative charges applicable to this portionof the case.

Costs applicable to storage ofcustomer-owned articles include the functions ofreceiving, care and preservation in storage, setassembly and related other storage activities, andoverhead in storage operations, such asre-warehousing, maintenance of operating equip-ment, physical inventories, and cleaning storageareas. Storage charges are applicable to theon-hand portion of FMSO I cases and to cases onwhich DoD is ready to deliver applicable itemsbut has been requested by the customer to delaydelivery (Note: There is no annual inventorymaintenance and storage charge for stockfund/Defense Business Operations Fund itemsfor CLSSAs as the stock fund/Defense BusinessOperations Fund standard price recoups allcosts). A uniform DoD annual rate of 1.5 per-cent or .125 percent monthly of the averagemonthly value of customer-owned materiel willbe charged to applicable FMS cases to recover anactivity’s costs of storage. An illustration ofbilling for storage, other than FMSO, is at Table804-17.

070802. Repair or Modification. When a for-eign government requests the repair and/ormodification of items, the actual or estimatedcost of the work will be priced on a job orderbasis. An illustration of price computation is atTable 708-1.

The exclu-sion for non-repayable FMS Credit cases isapplicable beginning FY 1990. DSAA will com-mit MAP funds and non-repayable credits on allFMS training cases excluding military pay andentitlements (including retired pay accrual) priorto FMS training cases being offered to a country.Any subsequent amendment/modificationserving to reduce the MAP and/ornon-repayable credit financing below 100% shallrequire repricing to add military pay andentitlements to the entire case. The followingadditional clarification is offered.

DoD Financial Management Regulation Volume 15, Chapter 7

A. A country’s IMET training pro-gram will be charged on an incremental basis.Furthermore, military salaries and entitlementswill be excluded for IMET funded assistance.

B. A country receiving assistanceunder the IMET program that decides to pur-chase additional training under a totally MAPfunded FMS case will be charged on an incre-mental basis which will exclude military salariesand entitlements.

C. In the event that the purchaser isa NATO member, Japan, Australia, New Zea-land, or major non-NATO ally, and has a recip-rocal pricing agreement with the USG, thepurchaser will be charged full direct costs lessreimbursement for indirect costs, administrativesurcharges, costs of billeting trainees (except tothe extent that members of the United StatesArmed Forces occupying comparable accommo-dations are charged for such accommodations bythe United States). See paragraph 071007.A.2.

D. If a country is a MAP but not anIMET recipient, and the country purchasestraining under a totally MAP funded case, thepurchaser will be charged at full cost (i.e., in-cludes both direct and indirect costs) less mili-tary salaries and entitlements.

0711 INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPUTINGFMS TRAINING COST

071101. Personnel Costs. Certain costs associat-ed with support of the foreign students or theirdependents are considered to be a responsibilityof the foreign government but are not includedin the tuition rate for training course. Computeand bill these costs as follows:

A. The students pay for meals in thebase mess at the rates established in DoD1338.10-M [reference (v)].

B. Medical care (including outpatient)for students and dependents shall be charged atthe rate prescribed by the Office of the Comp-troller, DoD. This cost shall be shown as aseparate line on the LOA and billed to theforeign country.

C. Normally, student travel andrelated costs shall be paid to the commercialcarrier, etc., by the foreign country or student.For any U.S. services provided, such as, MACtransportation, the nongovernment rate shall beapplied and billed to the foreign country orstudent, as appropriate.

D. DoD policy concerning occupancyof student family housing by foreign students isthat they may occupy family housing only aftera determination has been made that U.S. studentrequirements are satisfied and shall be satisfiedfor the projected duration of the foreignstudent’s occupancy. Under these circumstances,the amount to be charged shall be the costincurred by the Department of Defense, incidentto operation and maintenance of family housingunits. Table 711-1 provides guidance for calcu-lating the monthly rental charge for FMS studentoccupancy of DoD family housing. When for-eign students occupy family housing that is notexcess to U.S. Military Service needs, the amountto be charged shall be equal to the cost ofhousing U.S. Military Service personnel on theeconomy (BAQ and VHA).

E. When foreign students occupy theBOQ/BEQ/VOQ/VEQ, the students shall berequired to pay only the local custodial andnonappropriated fund fees.

071102. Direct Cost and Training Overhead

A. Certain costs can be directlyidentified to training courses. Once identified,divide the direct cost by the total number ofstudents enrolled in a course to arrive at a costper student. In turn, add all of the direct costsper student to be included in the tuition rate.

B. Compute the cost of salaries,allowances, etc., of instructors by dividing theannual instructor cost (see paragraph 071003) by52 weeks and multiplying the result by thenumber of weeks in the applicable course.Divide this cost by the average number of stu-dents in the class to develop a per-student rate.Alternatively, instructor costs may be allocatedon a instructor contract hours basis (that is, totalinstructor costs divided by total platformman-hours) that allows for a more equitabledistribution. Compute the costs of salaries,allowances, etc., of administrative and otherpersonnel supporting training by dividing thetotal annual cost by total course weeks of train-ing and multiplying result by the number ofweeks in the applicable course. Divide this costby the average number of students in the class todevelop a per-student rate.

C. The cost of TDY shall be allocatedto courses on the basis of a casual or beneficialrelationship. Accordingly, TDY must be segre-gated into two categories: one for TDY that iscaused by or benefits a specific course or coursesand the other for TDY that benefits the trainingoperation as a whole. TDY that is directlyrelated to (benefits) one or more courses shall bedirectly allocated to those courses. In order topreclude "double charging" a course for TDY,care must be taken to ensure that all directlyallocable travel is eliminated from the TDYincluded in the indirect cost pool. TDY thatbenefits the training operation as a whole shallbe allocated to sources by dividing the totalindirect TDY costs by total number of studentsand then multiplying the results by the numberof students enrolled in each course to arrive at acourse cost.

D. Cost for training U.S. instructorpilots, including proficiency and continuationtraining, shall be limited to special aircraft not in

217

Volume 15, Chapter 7 DoD Financial Management Regulation

the active U.S. aircraft inventory. Divide thesecosts by the normal tour of duty for an instructorpilot to arrive at an annual cost that shall bedistributed to courses in the same manner asinstructor salaries and allowances.

E. Cost of training materials, equip-ment, supplies, aids, munitions,.flight clothing,and personal equipment shall be charged to theapplicable course. Training material and aidsprepared above base level, that are readilyidentifiable to a course, shall be included as adirect cost of the course. If not readily identifi-able to a specific course, distribute these costs tocourses in the same manner as indirect TDYcosts. Care must be taken to ensure against"double charging" a course.

F. Compute the POL cost for aircraft(rotary/fixed wing), motorized equipment, ships,landing craft, etc., using the equipment hourlycost of POL times the number of operating hoursfor the course.

G. Depot level maintenance cost ofaircraft, engines, motorized vehicles, and equip-ment shall be charged to the applicable course atthe budgeted average hourly item repair costthat includes civilian pay, contractual effort, andsupplies. These costs shall be adjusted to in-clude military pay and centrally procured equip-ment and parts. Multiply this average hourlycost by the hours programmed for use in thespecific course.

H. Base level aircraft and equipmentmaintenance costs (including munitions mainte-nance) shall be allocated to courses on the basisof total maintenance costs divided by the totaltraining hours supported, if not identifiable andchargeable on a job order basis. Costs shallinclude military and civilian pay, supplies andequipment (including replenishment spares), andcontractual support. If there are a significantnumber of transit or nontraining aircraft at thebase, aircraft operating costs shall be distributedinitially between training and nontraining on thebasis of percentage of number of takeoffs, num-ber of sorties per year, or maintenance directlabor hours, whichever results in the best alloca-tion of costs in relation to the benefits received.For this purpose, aircraft used by personnel

supporting training for proficiency flying shallbe classified as training aircraft.

I. Simulator costs shall include payof the operators, supplies, and equipment main-tenance. Simulator costs shall be allocated to thecourse in the same ratio as hours used bears tothe total hours available.

J. Civil Engineer (Public Works) andother directly relatable support costs allocable totraining operations shall be distributed to cours-es on the basis of total training hour support orany other logical method of measurement; forexample, square footage of buildings, etc., (seesubparagraph H., above). This categoryincludes: the cost of air operation department;squadron command administration; crash/firedepartment; maintenance of hangars and airfieldpavements and marking; operation and mainte-nance of communications, navigation aids,airfield lighting, control tower, training facilities,and ground support and refueling equipment.Costs in this category shall include only thosethat would not be required if the training mis-sion were removed from the installation. If theywould remain, were the training mission re-moved, they shall be combined and allocatedalong with the other indirect base operating costsin paragraph 071103.

K. Range maintenance and operatingcosts shall be computed and allocated to coursesbased on the percentage of sorties or roundsfired in the course compared to the total sortiesor rounds fired or any other basis that results inan equitable allocation of these costs.

L. Tuition rates shall include thecosts of information programs, including trans-portation, meals, lodging, admission, programs,and incidental costs thereof. The student as-sumes the personal costs for laundry, cleaning,telephone service, and all other costs not directlyassociated with the programmed tour.

M. Include attrition rate of 4% forflying training and/or 1% for non-flying train-ing. There will be a year-end analysis of accountactivity in accordance with paragraph 030210.G.of this Volume.

218

DoD Financial Management Regulation Volume 15, Chapter 7

071103. Indirect Base Operating Costs

A. All other indirect base operatingcosts shall be allocated initially to major claim-ants (training, tenants, etc.). The amount allocat-ed to training shall then be distributed to areasof training that are significantly different (flyingoperations, classroom training, equipment main-tenance, etc.). All allocations shall be made atthe installation level using engineering estimatesor some other basis to ensure that allocations arecommensurate with the benefits received. Coststo support or operate quarters, a family housingcomplex, and food service activities that areapplicable to instructors and training supportpersonnel may not be allocated to tuition rates ifthese costs are recouped in base personnelsalaries. The amount allocated to each area oftraining shall then be distributed to the tuitionrate by dividing the amount allocated by theannual estimated student weeks of training.Reduce by 5 percent the amount allocated toforeign students to allow for costs consideredinappropriate for allocation, for example, chapel,equal rights office, alcohol treatment, specialservices, etc.

B. Exclude costs associated withcombat development, training development (lesscourse development), nonresident instruction, orother activity that offers no support to the train-ing mission and a pro rata share of school over-head costs to support these elements.

C. Exclude costs associated with unitsattached to the training activity with duty sta-tions at another location that are not involved inthe training of foreign students.

D. Costs related under-utilized capac-ity and mobilization requirements, when specifi-cally identified and documented, shall be exclud-ed from these allocations.

071104. Administrative Surcharge. Apply anoverall administrative surcharge of 3 percent tothe case cost.

071105. Shipment of Instructional Materials

A. Effective October 1, 1983, theshipment of instructional materials shall be

included in the tuition rates for all IMETP/FMScourses based on standard rates. The rates are$265 for Professional Military Education Courses(Military Articles and Services List, Item identifi-cation in the 171 series) and $65 for all othercourses.

B. This material is to be packed andlabeled at the training installation and shipped tothe Security Assistance Organization (SAO) ofthe country for delivery to the FMT. A copy ofthe student’s ITO shall be placed inside thepackage.

C. The training installation shallensure that no personal baggage or other unau-thorized matter is shipped with the instructionalmaterial.

Volume 15, Chapter 7 DoD Financial Management Regulation

TABLE 711-1 DEVELOPMENT OF FAMILY HOUSING CHARGES FOR FMS STUDENTS

This table provides guidelines for calculating charges for family housing provided to FMS students. Theguidelines shall be used only after a determination has been made that U.S. students’ requirements havebeen satisfied and shall be satisfied for the projected duration of the foreign student’s occupancy.

A. Steps to be followed in calculating the monthly rental charges to FMS students are as follows:

Step 1. Use the most recent annual installation family housing cost report to identify the costsincurred in operation and maintenance of installation family housing units.

Step 2. Inflate the annual cost report by the operation and maintenance inflation factorpublished each year by the Office of the Comptroller, DoD as part of Program Objectives Memorandumand budget guidance.

Step 3. Divide the sum of the amounts determined in Steps 1 and 2 by the number of familyhousing units located on the installation.

Step 4. Divide the annual average cost to operate and maintain a family housing unit by 12, toarrive at average monthly costs.

Step 5. Add $100 to the results of Step 4. The $100 is predicated on average charge for WherryHousing mortgage amortization and is in lieu of depreciation and interest on investment.

B. A price illustration of the FMS student family housing calculation follows:

1. Total FY 1980 cost incurred by installation inoperating and maintaining family housing units $ 998,586.00

2. Addition of FY 1981 inflation factor (11.27%) 112,541.00

Subtotal $1,111,127.00

3. Annual cost per family unit (449 units). 2,474.67

4. Monthly cost per family housing unit. 206.22

5. Monthly mortgage amortization charge. 100.00

Monthly rental charge to FMS student. $306.22

220

DoD Financial Management Regulation Volume 15, Chapter 7

0712 INCREMENTAL COSTING OF TRAIN-ING

071201. Instructors and School Support Staff.Courses shall be reviewed to determine if theincremental cost should be developed for aspecific course (for example, pilot training) or agroup of courses. For classroom or technicalcourses that are similar or that utilize instructorswho teach more than one course, such coursesmay be grouped for computation purposes.When there is a one-for-one or one-for-tworelationship of instructor to student, the instruc-tor in all cases shall be considered incremental.If the entire class is composed of foreign stu-dents, the instructor and staff shall always beconsidered incremental.

A. It is anticipated that the incremen-tal cost charged to IMET for instructors shall beminimal for courses or groupings of courseswhen either the ratios of students to instructorsor U.S. students to IMET students is high.

B. For these latter courses (or groupsof courses), a projection shall be made as to theestimated number of U.S. students who shall bein the course and the number of instructors andstaff required. A second projection shall bemade of the total number of students estimated,both U.S. and foreign, and the number of in-structors and staff required. Both projectionsshall be based on the maximum number ofstudents who can be taught by instructors orstaff rather than on optimum class size. Thedifference in instructor and staff between the twoprojections represents the incremental costs.This value, divided by the total number offoreign students, represents the incremental costper student for the course (or courses).Although used in the computation to deriveincremental IMET costs, FMS students shall stillbe priced at full cost in accordance with otherprovisions of this Chapter. In computing fullcost for the FMS student, care shall be taken toensure that the incremental cost charged to IMETstudents is not included in the FMS computation.

071202. Travel and Per Diem. All studenttravel and per diem associated with the trainingshall be considered incremental. All travel, perdiem, and allowance paid to members of Techni-

cal Assistance Field Teams (TAFTs) and similarteams, established to conduct in-country training,shall be considered incremental.

071203. Equipment Overhaul and Maintenance.The overhaul and maintenance of major items ofequipment, when computed on an hourly usebasis, shall be incremental to a course based onestimated utilization hours.

071204. Simulators. Simulator hours shall beincremental. See paragraph 071102.I.

071205. Supplies, Materiel, Training Aids, andAmmunition. Incremental cost shall be the re-placement price of items that are not returned orreusable (including POL) used in conducting thetraining. If discrete pricing is not or cannot bedeveloped for publications and Table 716-3 isused, determine IMET pricing at 10 percent ofthe costs shown in the table.

071206. Base Support Cost (i.e., Indirect Costs).Standard weekly rates shall be charged for IMETand IMET(FMS) training. The FY 1981 rates are$15 per week for IMET and $18 per week forIMET(FMS). In FY 1984, rates were $17 and $19.The rates for FY 1986 are $22 for IMET andFMS/IMET. These rates shall be adjusted annu-ally for inflation. Once every three years, theserates shall be validated by each Military Serviceand adjusted by the Office of the Comptroller,DoD as appropriate.

071207. Instructor Training. The training ofU.S. instructors or other personnel for specialcourses normally not conducted for U.S. person-nel shall be considered incremental. When therequired training is conducted at a U.S. trainingfacility, the benefiting country will be chargedthe course cost established in accordance withSections 711 and 712 instructions for computingtraining costs. When the special course is con-ducted by a Management Service Team (MST)away from the normal training institution, theservices of the MST will be treated as a serviceand priced in accordance with paragraphs 070202and 070203.

071208. Facilities and Equipment. Any facilitiesor equipment acquired primarily for the support

221

Volume 15, Chapter 7 DoD Financial Management Regulation

of foreign students shall be considered incremen-tal.

071209. Information Program. The full cost ofthe information program to the U.S. Governmentshall be incremental.

071210. Administrative Surcharge. The admin-istrative surcharge shall be charged on FMStraining sold to IMET-recipient countries, andshall also be charged to cases financed withMAP funds.

071211. Exclusions. The unfunded civilianretirement charge that is deposited to the Miscel-laneous Receipts Account shall be considered afixed cost and not included in the FMS trainingrates for IMET-recipient countries. This exclu-sion also applies to TAFTs established to conductin-country training and mobile training teams(MTTs).

0713 OTHER CASH SALES AND LEASINGOF DEFENSE ARTICLES

071301. General. Cash sales of Defense servicesother than those heretofore covered specificallyin this Chapter shall be priced to recover allelements of identifiable costs.

071302. DoD Support Costs. A separate FMScase shall be established to recoup DoD supportcosts such as those defined in paragraph 070406when support is furnished by Department ofDefense to facilitate direct sales by a U.S. con-tractor to a foreign government.

071303. Administrative Surcharge. The admin-istrative surcharge prescribed in Section 706 shallbe applied to identifiable costs.

071304. Pricing. When defense articles isleased to a foreign country or internationalorganization under authority of AECA [reference(a)], inspection, restoration, maintenance, andaccessorial costs incurred in connection with thelease shall be priced in accordance with para-graph 070802. In addition, depreciation chargeson the leased items may be applicable. Aworksheet to determine the applicability ofdepreciation charges and the amount thereof is

contained at Table 713-1. In the event leaseddefense articles are damaged beyond repair or isnot returned, replacement costs calculated inaccordance with paragraphs 070302.B. and C., asapplicable, shall be collected from the foreigncountry or international organization. Replace-ment cost shall be estimated when the equip-ment is placed on lease and set forth in the leaseagreement. Refer to Chapter 12 of DoD5105.38-M [reference (e)] for procedures onleasing arrangements. Charges for repair orother support of these items will not be madepart of this monthly lease payment.

0714 EXPANSION OF FACILITIES

071401. General. All costs of construction orexpansion of facilities desired by and for theexclusive use of the foreign government shall befinanced and funded by the foreign government.Charges by the U.S. Government for labor,materiel, or services shall be reimbursed inaccordance with the provisions of Sections 702and 703 of this Volume. When expansion isrequired for DoD use but may also be availablefor FMS, the cost shall be funded through thenormal DoD budget process.

071402. Reimbursement of Proportionate Share.In addition to the costs as above, a proportionateshare of operating costs shall be reimbursed.

0715 PRICING FOR USE OF TECHNOLOGY

071501. General. A Technical Data Package(TDP) encompasses production designs, draw-ings, specifications, models, manufacturingtechniques and details, and similar information(but excludes information associated with theRDT&E stage) necessary to enable a foreigngovernment to manufacture or have manufac-tured items of military equipment and repairparts. It does not include technical assistance orknow-how by U.S. Government personnel;however, such assistance may be provided atadditional cost.

071502. Pricing of Technical Data Packages.The Defense Security Assistance Agency (DSAA)may authorize release of a TDP to a foreigngovernment for in-country manufacture ofmilitary equipment and repair parts. Costsincurred in the preparation, reproduction, andhandling of the TDP shall be priced in accor-dance with the pricing policies set forth inparagraph 071301. When the pricing of the TDPis subject to an international agreement of whichthe DoD is a party or is otherwise bound, thesale will be determined consistent with the termsof the agreement.

0716 PUBLICATION PRICING

071601. General. This section prescribes themethod which will be used to determine the

price of DoD publications when they are sold toFMS customers. The term "publications" in-cludes technical orders, technical manuals,supply catalogs, training publications, adminis-trative publications, engineering drawings, andassociated documents, Integrated LogisticsSupport publications and associated documents,equipment component lists, special file extracts,decals, forms, and audio-visual products. Apublication may be bound or loose-leaf, imprint-ed form, ADP listing, operator’s card, microfilm,slide, motion picture film, etc. Engineeringdrawings and associated documents will bereviewed to determine if a technology charge isappropriate.

071602. Publication Pricing Factors. The fol-lowing costs shall be included in the develop-ment of FMS prices for publications:

A. Acquisition Cost (AC). The con-tractual and in-house DoD cost required todeliver a reproducible master including, but notlimited to, the amounts paid for technical oradministrative writing, editing, illustrating,animation, and copy preparation.

B. Copy Production Cost (CPC). Thecopy production costs incurred in printing orreproduction of copies from the reproduciblemaster.

C. Special Cost (SC). The cost in-curred in the sanitization (elimination ofnonreleasable information from a DoD publica-tion prior to release to a foreign government),classified handling, development, and mainte-nance of country-peculiar publications.

071603. Development of a Per Copy SellingPrice

A. The total cost of a publication isthe sum of the costs identified in B., above. Thetotal cost will be reduced to a per-copy expres-sion by dividing the cost by the quantity pro-duced (Q) as per the following formula:

(AC + CPC + SC) = Price per copyQ

224

DoD Financial Management Regulation Volume 15, Chapter 7

B. Recorded actual costs will be usedwhen available. When actual costs for individu-al publications cannot be readily determined, afactored expression of historical costs will bedeveloped from the most current cost recordsavailable. Uniform pricing tables can be devel-oped from the cost per "unit" ("unit" being eithera page, a roll of microfilm/microfiche page, or arunning foot of tape or motion picture film).Table 716-1 provides guidance for developingpublication pricing tables. Table 716-2 is asample pricing guide developed in accordancewith this guidance.

C. In the event there is an immediateneed for pricing existing inventories of publica-tions, and discrete pricing is not or cannot bedeveloped, Table 716-3 may be used. The pric-ing in Table 716-3 shall not be used for constantpricing of publications. It is to be used to fill animmediate need when actual or estimated pricescannot be determined. Its design allows a pricedefinition that recognizes the cost of each publi-cation in relation to its unit count, without theneed for performing a separate price calculationfor each publication. In recognition of the higherper-unit acquisition and copy production costthat occurs in low unit count publications, aminimum price is set to effect related cost recov-eries.

071604. Other Applicable Costs.

A. A technology charge that shall becollected in accordance with DoD Directive2140.2 [reference (r)] and Section 715 of thisVolume shall be an additional charge whenapplicable.

B. The standard administrative andaccessorial charges prescribed in this Chaptershall be recouped as a percentage of publicationprices. These charges are not included in the percopy selling price.

C. The FMS price for a joint MilitaryService publication shall be established by theMilitary Department responsible for its acquisi-tion and management. That Military Departmentshall notify the other participating DoD Compo-nents of the established FMS price.

TABLE 716-1 DEVELOPMENT OF FMS PUBLICATION PRICING TABLES

This table provides instructions for constructing and using publication pricing tables based on factoredcosts when actual publication costs cannot be readily determined.

A. Using a representative sample of the various types of publications, develop unit prices for eachpublication category (such as, technical, supply, administrative, training, and engineering drawings) asfollows:

Step 1: From reproducible master procurement or production records, determine the averageacquisition cost within the category.

Step 2: From copy production records, determine the average copy production cost within thecategory.

Step 3: Add the results of Steps 1 and 2.

Step 4: Estimate the "typical quantity," as derived from a representative sample of actual usage orfrom forecasted requirements for publications within the category

Step 5: Divide the total from Step 3 by the estimated number of copies to be produced to derivethe price per unit.

Step 6: To determine the selling price of a single copy of the publication, multiply unit or page costby number of units or pages in the publication.

B. An example of the steps above is shown for a sample of X number of publications in paper formas follows:

Step 1:Acquisition Cost of

2. If unit count is at or below the minimum, set price at $16.00.

3. Extrapolate when unit counts are above the minimum. For example, the calculation for a unit countof 382 would be computed from the table as follows:

Units Price300 $78.4080 20.802 .51

Total 382 $99.71

Rounding to the nearest dollar, the price charged to the FMS customer would be $100.00.

4. Add 20% to price for classified publications.

0717 SPECIAL DEFENSE ACQUISITIONFUND (SDAF)

071701. General. The Special Defense Acquisi-tion fund was authorized in 1981 by an amend-ment to Chapter 5 of the AECA to fund the pro-curement of defense articles in anticipation oftheir sale or transfer to foreign governments.The basic objective of the fund is to facilitatedelivery of materiel in advance of normal pro-curement lead-times. The detail requirements ofthe fund are discussed in Chapter 14 of theSecurity Assistance Management Manual(SAMM)[reference (e)].

071702. Sales Involving the Special Defense Ac-quisition Fund

A. Sales to the Fund. Sales ofmateriel and recurring services in support ofpurchases to the SDAF will be priced accordingto the requirements of this section. These pric-ing elements represent SDAF obligations. There-fore, care must be taken to record and obligatetransactions in a timely manner. Over-oblig-ations shall be reported in accordance withDoDD 7200.1 [reference (f)]. The DoD Compo-nent with custody of the SDAF asset beingpurchased will maintain identity of the relatedunfunded costs until the respective asset is soldto an FMS customer. The following additionalguidance on pricing sales to the SDAF is provid-ed to address specific problems:

1. A c c e s s o r i a l c o s t s a sprescribed by Section 705 of this Chapter will becharged to the fund only if applicable; e.g.,PC&H and transportation will not be charged forshipments in place to change the commoditymanager’s ownership/purpose code assigned tothe asset in stock.

2. Contracts awarded to meetSDAF requirements shall not provide for rentalcharges under provisions of the Federal Acquisi-tion Regulation (FAR)[reference (g)].

3. The actual CAS cost applica-ble to procurements for the SDAF shall be in-cluded in Standard Form 1080 for billing FMScosts from the DoD Components to the clearingaccount maintained by the SAAC. The normal

CAS surcharge will be added to billings forcontract cost for the purpose of inventory valua-tion.

4. All unfunded costs other thannonrecurring charges will be charged for sales tothe fund. These charges include military andcivilian pay for services such as engineeringchanges, personnel acceleration factors andsecondary item replacement factors. Nonrecur-ring cost recoupment charges will be collectedfrom FMS customers when the materiel is soldfrom the fund and deposited to the appropriateaccounts identified in paragraph 070105.

B. Sales from the Fund. Sales ofmateriel from the fund will be classified as salesfrom SDAF stock. This is distinguished fromsales of DoD stocks or sales from procurementand is consistent with normal definition ofDefense Stocks.

C. Sales to Foreign Governments.The selling price for SDAF items sold to foreigngovernments will be computed by establishing abase acquisition price as outlined in subpara-graph 1 below. Applicable charges for nonrecur-ring costs will be added to the base price toarrive at the SDAF selling price. PC&H andtransportation, and FMS administrative surcharg-es are additive to and not a component of theitem selling price.

1. The SDAF full value baseprice will be the higher of the SDAF procure-ment price or the current DoD contract price, ifthe item is on a contract signed subsequent tothe SDAF contract at the time of preparation ofan LOA for the sale.

a. The SDAF procurementprice is the total estimated unit price as reflectedon SDAF procurement requests (direct cite andreimbursable) for the item being priced.

b. The current DoD contractprice will be estimated by the DoD Componentinvolved as prescribed in Section 704 of thisVolume with identification of all appropriateadd-on charges.

230

DoD Financial Management Regulation Volume 15, Chapter 7

2. If the DSAA determines anSDAF item to be of reduced utility, an appropri-ate reduction to the price may be made in accor-dance with paragraph 070302.C.1. Such a reduc-tion could conceivably lower the selling price tobelow the SDAF cost.

D. Sales to a Military Department.The selling price of an item sold to a MilitaryDepartment will depend on whether the item isin turn sold to an FMS customer or is used bythe Military Department.

1. If an SDAF item is sold to aMilitary Department for further sale to an FMScustomer, the selling price for both transactionswill be the FMS price prescribed in subpara-graph C.1., above.

2. A sale to a MilitaryDepartment for its own use will be priced torecover the cost incurred by the SDAF. DoDComponents are not authorized to pay higherprices than actual DoD contract prices.

071703. Quotation of Stabilized Prices. Sales ofSDAF items will be quoted as firm prices andLOA will be annotated accordingly. The DSAAis responsible for reviewing SDAF prices toassure full cost recovery and for changing anyproposed SDAF prices to achieve that objective.

071704. Charges for Nonrecurring Costs

A. Nonrecurring cost will not becharged the SDAF on sales to the fund.

B. Nonrecurring costs will be deter-mined according to paragraph 070305 and col-lected on sales from the SDAF to a foreigncustomer.

071705. Recovery of Contract AdministrationCosts Incurred in Support of New Procurementsfor the Fund. SDAF pays the normal CASsurcharge at the time of procurement and thiscost is included as part of the SDAF acquisitioncost (see Table 717-1). Therefore, when anSDAF-owned item is sold, it is considered to bea sale from inventory and no additional CAScharge is applied.

071706. Special SDAF Surcharge. The purposeof this surcharge is to maintain the solvency ofthe SDAF account; i.e., the SDAF corpus cannotgain or lose monies as a result of inventory/salestransactions. Accordingly, a special SDAFsurcharge will be applied, as necessary, to recov-er the cost of SDAF inventory losses, pilferage,obsolescence, and any loss of SDAF proceedsresulting from sales at reduced prices. Thesurcharge percentages will be determined annu-ally by DSAA and applied to the SDAF acquisi-tion cost by SAAC.

071707. Exceptions. Requests for exceptions tothe preceding pricing policies will be submittedin accordance with Section 719 of this Volume.

0718 CASE MANAGEMENT LINE

071801. General. DoD Components shall assurethat each type of cost is allocated only once andonly on one basis to an FMS Case. Additionaldiscussion on consistency in allocating costsincurred for the same purpose is contained inVolume 4 of this Regulation.

A. A case management line shall beincluded in FMS cases when there will be provi-sion of non-routine levels of DoD case manage-ment effort in support of a case. Non-routineeffort may be provided only if a case manage-ment line (L8A) has been accepted by the FMSpurchaser.

B. Program management lines, asopposed to case management lines, are intendedto be used in those instances where it is neces-sary that the implementing agency undertakesome system or program management effort inorder to successfully deliver the item that hasbeen ordered by the FMS customer. The costs tobe recovered by program management linesdiffer from those covered by case managementlines in that they are directly related to the itemor service being delivered as opposed to anextraordinary FMS case management expenseassociated with the implementation of a specificcomplex FMS case.

C. Table 718-1 provides a fundingmatrix of the appropriate funding sources for thecost of various types of activities/functionsinvolved in FMS case implementation. Whilenot all inclusive, it aids in differentiating activi-ties and functions to be funded by FMS adminis-trative funds, hardware or service lines, casemanagement lines, or program managementlines."

D. Costs incurred for communica-tions, utilities, automatic data processing, officesupplies and equipment, and rental charges arenormally recouped as administrative expenses.However, when a case management or programmanagement line has been established, thesetypes of costs shall be charged directly to thatline, as appropriate.

0719 EXCEPTION TO PRICING POLICIESAND COST RECOUPMENT WAIVERS

071901. General. An exception to prescribedpricing policies refers to approval of an alterna-tive method of identifying applicable cost. Acost recoupment waiver refers to the exercise oflegal authority to partially or totally waiverecoupment of incurred costs.

071902. Request for Exception to Policies orDirectives. Requests for exceptions to the poli-cies prescribed herein or waivers of DoD costsshall be submitted to the Office of the DoDComptroller with a copy to the DSAA Comptrol-ler. Sufficient data shall accompany the requestto enable the Comptroller, DoD to evaluate themerits of the proposed deviation. When devia-tions or waivers are requested, it shall be shownthat such deviations or waivers are consistentwith statutory requirements and are in the bestinterest of the U.S. Government. No charges orsurcharges based on a percentage rate shall bemade to recover any element of cost unless (1)the percentage charge or surcharge is expresslyprescribed in this Volume, or (2) the percentagerate is proposed in writing to and is approvedby the Office of the Comptroller, DoD.

0720 PERIODIC REVIEW AND UPDATINGOF RATES

072001. General. Rates that may be developedto recoup accessorial costs (Section 705) andadministrative costs (Section 706) are subject toreview. The Office of the Comptroller, DoD,should notify applicable DoD Components whensuch reviews are being made and request appro-priate DoD Component participation. Beginningin FY 1993, the rates for PC&H will be reviewedevery two years by the DFAS.

072002. Revising Rates. Whenever a Depart-ment believes that a prescribed rate should berevised, it should submit an appropriate requestto the Office of the Comptroller, DoD withsupporting data.

0721 FINAL ACCOUNTING

072101. General. Once a final statement hasbeen sent for an FMS case, the case shall bereclassified by the IA from active to inactivestatus in accordance with paragraph 021104.Effective October 1, 1992, all closed cases withpost closure activity, not subject to acceleratedclosure procedures, will be reopened to reportexecution and will be recertified prior to closure.

0722 LOGISTICS SUPPORT CHARGE

072201. Applicability. The logistics supportcharge is applicable to other than Defense Busi-ness Operations Fund materiel.

072202. Purpose. A logistics support chargeshall be added to FMS case lines for spare parts,supplies, and maintenance of customer ownedequipment to recoup an appropriate share of thecost incurred in the logistics support area. Thelogistics support charge shall be a part of thecost of the item supplied and shall not be shownas a separate add-on charge to the FMS customerin the delivery listing or the DD Form 645,"Foreign Military Sales Billing Statement," pro-vided to the FMS customer. The functionsperformed in the logistics support area includeproduction control, requisition processing, inven-tory maintenance, administration of Reports ofDiscrepancy (RODs), and logistics management.

072203. Actual Logistics Support Expenses.Those DOD organizations which provide generallogistic support of the FMS program shall recoupthe full cost of providing such support. Costscharged in connection with logistic support shallnot include costs which are prescribed in thismanual for alternative recoupment methods.

A. The personnel portion of thebudget for actual logistics support expense shallinclude a pro rata share of those personnelperforming logistics support duties. If anorganization’s manpower staffing is based uponroutinely maintained workload statistics (such asthe number of requisitions processed), the costallocable as a actual logistics support expenseshall be determined on a pro rata basis fromworkload statistics. For example, if the FMSlogistics workload is 25 percent of the totalworkload, then 25 percent of the organization’s

236

DoD Financial Management Regulation Volume 15, Chapter 7

payroll shall be funded through FMS logisticssupport expense charges. If routinely main-tained statistics are not available, the costs willbe determined based on cost finding techniquesor other methods which are appropriate indetermining the cost of maintaining the FMSprogram.

B. Other actual or estimated actuallogistics support costs include:

1. Travel costs, including perdiem and transportation incurred in the logisticssupport of the FMS logistics program.

2. Automatic data processingcosts to support FMS logistics workload basedon proration of machine time required to pro-duce FMS logistics reports, requisition historystatus, or other transactions.

3. Printing and reproductioncost incurred primarily for the benefit of theFMS logistics program.

4. Communications, utilities,and office supply costs shall be allocated aslogistics support expense, on a pro rata basis i.e.,a proration of number of phone instruments, etc.

5. Equipment costs, both pur-chased and rental, when such costs are specifical-ly incurred to support the FMS logistics pro-gram.

6. Rental charges at fully dedi-cated FMS logistics activities for floor spacerental, and certain other support services.

7. The "net cost" to the Depart-ment of Defense for processing RODs for over-age, shortage, damage, item deficiency, andduplicate billing. Such costs exclude discrepan-cies that are attributable to damage or lossoccurring after passage of title. Normally, FMSshipments move from the depot or vendor’splant on collect commercial bill of lading withtitle passed at point of origin. However, occa-sionally shipments move under Government Billsof Lading. Under either of these conditions titlepasses at the point of origin and if damage orloss occurs subsequent to title passage, payment

is not to be made from the administrative fund(that is, claims should be submitted against thecommon carrier). See Chapter 8, Section IV.F ofDOD 5105.38-M [reference (e)], for more de-tailed information.

8. Materiel costs included inactual logistics support expenses should be thenet value of the returned materiel. There is no"net cost" to the Department of Defense incanceling duplicate billings or in shipping anitem for which a country had been billed but theDepartment of Defense cannot confirm it hasbeen shipped.

C. Funded cost must be accelerated torecover unfunded cost where appropriate, i.e.,personnel cost must be accelerated for unfundedcivilian retirement.

072204. Prescribed Logistics Support Charge
