How much Money does our department get for the items sold through Surplus?

Answer:
Due to the restructuring of the program, the surplus office must be completely self funded.  This means that all costs associated with running the program must be first taken from the proceeds earned through the sales.  All balances will then be proportionately distributed back to the departments.  This will occur once a year, on or about January 1.
