Gross-Up

Gross-up is an adjustment mechanism used when reimbursable expenses are calculated as if the property were occupied at a stated level (often to prevent very low occupancy from understating per-tenant expense allocations). It is most commonly applied to variable operating expenses rather than fixed expenses.
