UCLA employee benefit expenditures are recorded by the UCLA payroll system at the
individual employee level based on each employee’s eligibility for benefits and other criteria
that may impact the cost of one or more components of employee benefit expense. Year-to-year
increase in employee benefit expenditures is driven principally by the UC Regents mandated
increase in the employer contributions to the UC retirement plan.

one-time =$1,693,188 TOTAL =$7,345,590. NOTE: Does not include memberships, scholarly
communication expenses, or expenses for shared-print.
14 Down over the past year because program directors in new roles began their new department
commitments: outreach is expected to increase again in the new FY.
15 Down because the number of instruction and outreach offerings decreased this year.
16 This number was down over last year: Suspected that there was some double-counting last year,
and this year reference transactions were consolidated across the library and reporting unified.
We expect stability over the next FY.
