Supplementary Information
A. Purpose
FAR Part 31, Contract Cost Principles and Procedures, contains cost principles and procedures for (1) the pricing of contracts, subcontracts, and modifications to contracts and subcontracts whenever cost analysis is performed; and (2) the determination, negotiation, or allowance of costs when required by a contract clause. However, certain cost elements that are reviewed pursuant to this part require supporting documentation. One of these involves a justification of automatic data processing equipment leasing costs under FAR 31.205-2. The information is used by the contracting officer to determine the allowability of a cost element.
B. Annual Reporting Burden
Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 30 minutes per completion, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. The annual reporting burden is estimated as follows: Respondents, 3,172; responses per respondent, 1; total annual responses, 3,172; preparation hours per response, .5; and total response burden hours, 1,586.
