Table 1 - 43 illustrates the total burdened cost method. The raw cost is stored on each expenditure item. The burdened cost is calculated and then also stored on each expenditure item. The burden cost shown in the table is an interim value that is not stored. In this example, Labor is burdened and Computer Rental is not.

Table 1 - 44 shows the detail of the burden cost on Item #1 in Table 1 - 43.

Burden Cost Element	Amount
Fringe	40.00

Table 1 - 44. Burden Cost Detail

Oracle Projects calculates the burdened cost of each expenditure item in the Distribute Cost processes. For supplier invoices, the burdened cost of each expenditure item is calculated in the Interface Supplier Invoices from Payables process.

Note: The burden cost of each item may be comprised of a buildup of individual burden cost components, as shown in Table 1 - 44. This is not readily visible by looking at the expenditure item. However, Oracle Projects provides the ability to report this buildup of burden cost for each individual expenditure item. For more information on reporting the individual burden cost components when you use this method of storing burden amounts, see: Reporting Burden Components in Custom Reports.
