Equipment Overhead
Equipment overhead costs include the direct costs of normal risk insurance and property taxes along with the indirect costs of storage, security, mechanics supervision, inspection, licenses, and record keeping. Profit, project overhead, and general company overhead costs such as office facilities and supplies are not included.
