How are indirect costs calculated?

In the nonprofit world, indirect costs are usually part of the overall grant award. If an award is $100,000, the indirect costs are part of that total award. In research, indirect costs are usually in addition to the award. The award would be the $100,000 plus the indirect costs. For the CBCRP CRC awards, both the academic and community-based partners are eligible for indirect costs under certain conditions (see the CRC application for a full explanation of this). Those that are eligible can use either an existing federally agreed-upon rate or if they don’t have one, they can use the CBCRP’s default rate of 25 percent of their award as the indirect costs.
