3 Factor Formula
Please see CAS ] to determine whether or not your organization must use the 3 factor formula for distribution of residual home office costs.
The 3 Parts of the 3 Factor Formula
Payroll Dollars
The percentage of the segment's payroll dollars to the total payroll dollars. Note, that the requirement is dollars, not hours.
Operating Revenue
The percentage of the segment’s operating revenue to the total operating revenue of all segments. Verify that only net interdivisional purchases are included (amounts charged to other segments reduced by any amounts charged by other segments for purchases.)
Net Book Value
The percentage of the average net book value of the sum of the segment’s tangible capital assets plus inventories to the total average net book value of such assets of all segments.
- (a) Verify that property held primarily for leasing to others is excluded.
- (b) Verify that inventories are net of progress payment billings.
- (c) Verify that inventories include work-in-process on fixed price contracts.
- (4) Determine that there are no double entries in the three factor formula (e.g., unbilled costs classified as revenue and inventory).
