Are you having trouble funding overheads in your organisation? Do you rely on donations or your reserves to subsidise your services? If the answer to both questions is 'yes', then you need Full Cost Recovery. Would seeing your costs more clearly help you write better funding applications and improve decisions about much you should be asking for? Would you like to be able to demonstrate to your funders exactly how much your services cost to run? If the answer to both questions is' yes', you need to work out the full costs of your activities, including your overheads.
acevo (Association of Chief Executives of Voluntary Organisations), New Philanthropy Capital (NPC) and accountants KPMG, have consequently developed a new guide and interactive toolkit that will help you calculate and understand the total cost of each of your activities including an appropriate proportion of your overhead costs. This guide will help you to - Understand about full cost recovery and allocating costs - Calculate the full cost of your projects or services, including direct costs and an appropriate level of indirect or overhead costs.
