Assessable Cost Allocation | Linear & Land ConsiderationsSteven Eady
Non-assessable can be removed from the total construction costs. You can also allocate the cost to assessment categories – Buildings & Structures (B&S), and Machinery & Equipment (M&E).
This document analyzes the economic impact of 11 key businesses located near Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. It finds that these businesses generate nearly $445 million annually in taxes for Dallas County, Texas, and the United States. They support over 10,000 jobs and have a combined facility valuation of over $500 million. The construction of these business facilities also generated an additional $150 million in one-time tax revenues.
ATC loss is introduced to accurately capture transmission and distribution losses by calculating the difference between energy input into the system and actual energy payment collected, rather than just comparing energy billed to consumers. It considers both technical losses from overloading equipment and poor maintenance as well as commercial losses from issues like low billing/collection efficiency, electricity theft, and corruption. ATC loss percentage is calculated as the difference between energy input and energy realized from actual bill collections, divided by total energy input.
Mitie is one of the largest low carbon consultancies in the UK and provides energy certification services to over 200 clients. The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive requires that businesses and public buildings obtain energy certificates and comply with energy efficiency criteria. Properties must have an Energy Performance Certificate when constructed, sold, or let, and larger publicly accessible buildings must display their Display Energy Certificate. Air conditioning systems over 12kW also must be regularly inspected. The Directive aims to improve building energy efficiency and reduce emissions through transparency of energy performance certification.

During 2008, a Special Interest Group was formed out of cost engineers from the process
industry representatives to pick-up the challenge to establish a globally accepted standard for labor
productivity norms for the industry. In February 2009, the Dutch Association of Cost Engineers (DACE)
published a CD-ROM that provides guidance in the use of labor productivity norms for many of the
disciplines which are involved in the construction and maintenance of industrial production facilities.
This document examines engineering labor rates reported in qualifying defense contracts from April 2015 to March 2016. It finds that 32 engineering labor rates were reported, ranging from £11 to £74 per hour. However, the data quality is poor, as companies define engineering roles differently and most rates did not specify if they included overheads. While the data provides a range of rates, it cannot be used for credible benchmarking due to inconsistencies in how companies report this data.
A defense contractor hired TEEG to audit its energy bills and utility equipment at multiple facilities across the US. TEEG identified significant errors through forensic analysis, including an electric meter multiplier error that led to $1.2 million in cost savings. In total, TEEG has achieved nearly $2 million in cost savings, credits, and refunds for the defense contractor through identifying billing errors and securing ongoing annual savings of $194,000 by correcting rates and charges.

This document provides an overview of life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA), a method for assessing the total cost of facility ownership that takes into account acquisition, operation, maintenance, and disposal costs. The summary includes:
- LCCA is useful for comparing project alternatives that fulfill the same requirements but differ in initial and operating costs to select the lowest overall cost option over the life of the facility.
- Costs included in an LCCA are initial, energy, maintenance, replacement, residual, and other costs. These costs are quantified, expressed in current dollars, escalated to the future, and discounted to present value.
- Parameters for the analysis include the discount rate, study period length, and treatment
Departmental overhead rates are preferred to a single overhead rate because they improve control of controllable overhead costs and increase costing accuracy when products move through multiple departments. Departmental overhead rates involve estimating overhead for each department, rather than just total factory overhead. Using departmental rates results in different amounts of applied overhead and product costs depending on the labor hours and rates for each department. Non-manufacturing businesses can also benefit from departmentalization to better budget and control costs by department.

Property Assessment & Taxation Estimates
Other Resourceful Property Tax Documentation
Once the non-assessable costs have been removed from the total
construction costs, the next step in the process is to allocate this
Buildings & Structures (B&S), and Machinery & Equipment (M&E). These
categories are assessed and taxed very differently, with the M&E category
having an advantageous position over B&S, both in assessment and tax.
The general rule is that $100 of install cost in the B&S category translates
to $100 of assessment, however, $100 of install cost in the M&E category
translates to about $58 in assessment. This is due to various assessment
factors and depreciation differences. Considering this advantage, the aim
should be to classify as much of the install cost as possible into M&E.
This would include some improvements that are not immediately apparent as being part of M&E. Concrete foundations to
support heavy equipment, in many cases are erroneously placed into the B&S category, when the foundation is 100% there to
support the equipment, and should therefore be assessed as such.
The broad definition of ‘Linear’ property includes electric power systems, cable and telecommunication systems, pipelines, and
wells. These linear assets are normally assessed on manual rates, not actual construction costs. We often find, however that
some linear costs leak into the construction costs, causing them to be double taxed. Some examples of this to be aware of are:
Utility Contribution – Often in a remote site location, a monetary contribution to a utility provider will need to be made in
order to expand the power network to the site. Usually the contribution is treated as a credit to the company by the utility
provider, and amortized over the life of the project. Often this cost is included in the construction costs, the proper treatment
is to remove this from the cost report and assess it as linear property belonging to the power company.
Cogen power plant – if the plant is generating electricity, the important thing to be aware of is if the plant is tied to the
electrical grid the cost related to power generation is to be assessed as linear. If the plant is self-sufficient and not tied to the
grid, the power generation component is assessed as machinery and equipment.
Often the purchase cost for the land ends up in the construction costs, as the land purchase occurs before construction and is
not part of construction, it should not be part of the cost report. Land is assessed at market value or manual rates (farm).
Linear and Land Considerations
