Why budgets are more than just a bunch of numbers September 26, 2016 MORE THAN NUMBERS Topics to be covered include: Being responsive to budget requirements by sponsor Describing the use of AY salary vs summer salary Budgeting with partners and/or subcontracts Defining F&A and why it s necessary Breaking down a sample budget Evaluating cost share requirements Defining Purdue s policy on cost sharing How to get assistance with your budget 2 1

Importance of a Budget Outlines the project in fiscal terms Budget items give an in depth understanding of how the project will be structured and managed Helps reviewers determine if the project is: FEASIBLE 3 COSTING BASICS Costing Policy requires that all expenditures for sponsored projects meet the following criteria: They must be REASONABLE They must be ALLOWABLE They must be ALLOCABLE 4 2

COSTING BASICS REASONABLE Cost a prudent person would have agreed to under the circumstances (newspaper test). ALLOWABLE Must be allowable under any limitations or exclusions within the announcement, award, sponsor, or university guidelines. ALLOCABLE Charges are assigned to benefiting accounts in accordance with the benefits received. May be assigned as either direct or indirect costs. 5 COSTING BASICS Why is it important to make sure a proposal is properly costed? Ensure processes and systems are designed in accordance with government regulations Ensure sponsors bear their fair share of total project costs Ensure consistency in proposal budgeting 6 Proposed budget should be sufficient to carry out all program deliverables 3

KEY CONSIDERATIONS How does Pre Award support Investigators in proposal preparation? Investigators Know the RESEARCH Pre Award Knows the BUDGET Investigators must be able to communicate the budget needs to Pre Award in order to build a successful proposal budget. 7 KEY CONSIDERATIONS Review the Program Announcement (PA, RFP) and the applicable budget guidelines for allowable and unallowable costs. Some sponsors have general budget considerations not specific to a program (NSF, NIH). Identify budget considerations: Minimums/maximums Unallowable costs Salary limitations Required budget items (travel, salary, etc) Cost Share Requirement 8 F&A Restrictions 4

KEY CONSIDERATIONS Identify the costs necessary to successfully complete the Scope of Work (SOW) Questions to Consider: How and where will the project be completed? Who is needed to complete the project? How much of their time? What items are needed to complete the project? Will any partners be involved? Will any travel be necessary? Do I have the equipment needed for the project? 9 COMPONENTS OF A BUDGET Direct Costs Costs that can be identified specifically for a particular sponsored project Costs that can be directly assigned to such activities relatively easily with a high degree of accuracy 10 5

COMPONENTS OF A BUDGET DIRECT COSTS 11 Salaries and Wages Fringe Benefits Graduate Fee Remissions Consultants Participant Support Subcontracts Equipment Travel Supplies and Expense COMPONENTS OF A BUDGET DIRECT COSTS Salaries and Wages 12 Identify personnel needed to complete the work Principal Investigators, Research/Professional Associates, Research Assistants, Post Docs, Grads, Technicians Budgeted as a percentage of time. Examples: 10% AY 2 weeks summer 100% Some sponsors require person months Must follow college and/or department guidelines Some require AY time for faculty Specific starting salaries for grads and post docs 6

COMPONENTS OF A BUDGET DIRECT COSTS Salaries and Wages Summer vs AY Summer with a 9 month appointment can budget up to 12 weeks of summer. Summer salary is budgeted at an inflated rate to account for Purdue Summer Pay Policy. 13 Academic Year (AY) AY time should be budgeted as needed to complete the project and in accordance with departmental guidelines. Most departments offer course releases if a specific amount of AY time is budgeted (example: 20% per course per semester) COMPONENTS OF A BUDGET DIRECT COSTS Salaries and Wages Fringe benefits budgeted as a percentage of salary at a rate determined annually by Managerial Accounting Services based on averages by employment category Graduate Fee Remissions budgeted at a monthly rate based on the time budgeted per Grad Inflated annually 14 7

COMPONENTS OF A BUDGET DIRECT COSTS Why should we not over commit key personnel? Budgeting 100% are there no other responsibilities? All activities must be taken into consideration Look at commitment across all sponsored projects 15 COMPONENTS OF A BUDGET DIRECT COSTS 16 Consultants Outside services necessary to complete the work Not provided by University personnel Service provided is routine in nature and not collaborative Participant Support Stipends or subsistence allowances, travel allowances, and registration fees paid to or on behalf of participants or trainees (not employees) Limited to conference or training grants 8

COMPONENTS OF A BUDGET DIRECT COSTS Subcontracts Collaborations with other institutions/agencies Substantive, participating in the results, publications, and presentation of the research 17 Budget Considerations: Consider giving each partner/subawardee a target budget early in the process Purdue only collects indirect costs on the first $25K of each subcontract COMPONENTS OF A BUDGET DIRECT COSTS Equipment Specifically needed for the project Must be a single unit over $5,000 Are renovations needed? Will it fit through the door? 18 9

COMPONENTS OF A BUDGET DIRECT COSTS Travel Field Work, Collaborative/Professional Meetings, Periodic Agency Meetings (Agency Required) Include mileage, rental car expense, parking, airfare, per diem (meals) Supplies and Expenses Resources necessary to complete the work Estimate as close as possible Sufficient supplies (lab, animals, chemicals, etc) 19 COMPONENTS OF A BUDGET INDIRECT COSTS Costs that are incurred for common or joint objectives 20 Depreciation and Use Allowances (building and equipment) General, Sponsored Programs, Student, and Departmental Administration Operation and Maintenance Expenses Library Expenses Office Supplies and Copying Basic Local Telephone Services On Campus Journals and Subscriptions, Memberships 10

COMPONENTS OF A BUDGET INDIRECT COSTS Indirect Cost Rate Negotiated between Purdue and Department or Health and Human Sciences (DHHS) every 3 years Applied as a Percentage to the Modified Total Direct Costs Common Exclusions Equipment, Graduate Fee Remissions, Subcontracts (after the first $25K) 21 Proposal Process Facilities & Administration (F&A) West Lafayette F&A Rates Research = 55% Instruction = 54% Other Sponsored Programs (OSP) = 38% Off Campus = 26% Uncapped Research Rate = 64.75% Other terms used to describe F&A Indirect Costs, IDC, or overhead Criteria for off campus rate: Activity necessitates an off campus location, is for a full semester or summer session, and in a project leased space 22 11

Proposal Process Facilities & Administration (F&A) When will Purdue accept limitations on F&A? 23 Accepted when limited in published guidelines by Not for Profits and Foundations Mission/goals of these types of organizations are to benefit the public well being as a whole Industrial proposals less than or equal to $10K* *When considered seed funding Why can t Purdue accept limitation on F&A for Forprofit entities? F&A costs are REAL costs to the University If granted, PU would be subsidizing a For Profit entity COMPONENTS OF A BUDGET DIRECT COSTS When can I budget indirect items as direct? When integral to the project, costs that are normally considered an indirect cost may be charged as direct costs to federal projects. Examples clerical or administrative salaries, office supplies, postage, local telephone charges (must be justified in the budget justification) Purdue has disclosed how charges will be treated (direct or indirect) *consistency unless * 24 12

BUDGET JUSTIFICATION Budget narrative must be provided to support the proposed budget Explains the financial picture of the project Budget should be realistic and justified by the aims and methods of the project Provide any other information that will aid the sponsor in evaluating and funding the proposed item or cost Needs to match what is in the budget 25 SAMPLE BUDGET 26 13

Cost Sharing - Types 1. Mandatory cost sharing: institutional support that is required in writing by the granting agency, and the amount is specified in a granting agency s written solicitation. 2. Voluntary committed cost sharing: institutional support committed to the project solely at the discretion of the institution. These resources are pledged formally in a proposal and thereby become binding commitments that the granting agency may audit. 3. Institutional support/leverage: institutional resources not specified as mandatory or committed specifically yet discussed in the proposal as organizational resources or infrastructure necessary for, and available to enable, a project. Such resources are not quantified or allocated to a specific project. Institutional support/leverage is communicated to demonstrate Purdue s capacity or capability. 4. Voluntary uncommitted cost sharing: institutional support provided by Purdue but not pledged formally in the proposal usually because of agency restrictions against cost sharing. Such cost sharing is subsequently made available to the project upon receipt of the award and is not binding or auditable. Such resources can be internally quantified and solely support a specific project, but they are not normally shared with the sponsor prior to award. 27 Cost Sharing General Guidelines Handled consistently and in accordance with the Uniform Guidance (2 CFR 200.306), o Voluntary committed cost sharing is not expected and cannot be used as a factor during the merit review of applications. o It may be considered if it is both in accordance with Federal awarding agency regulations and specified in the notice of funding opportunity. o Criteria for considering voluntary committed cost sharing and any other program policy factors that may be used to determine who may receive a Federal award must be explicitly described in the notice of funding opportunity. Mandatory and voluntary committed cost sharing commitments offered by the University in support of a sponsored project must be: o Allowable costs o Expended during the award period o Quantifiable o Auditable o Not allocated to more than one sponsored project 28 o Treated consistently by the University 14

Cost Sharing Process Starting Point Understand the Big Picture o An initial budget should be established for the total project costs, regardless of funding contributions. o Assess whether and/or how cost sharing should be part of the project budget. Requests for cost sharing should originate through discussions among the PI(s), their Department Head(s) and Associate Dean(s) for Research. o Early in the proposal development process, but no later than two weeks before the due date. o In accordance with intra college/school/department processes or procedures. o For multi college proposals, ADRs of all units involved must be included in all communications involving inter college/school cost sharing early in process. EVPRP staff facilitates the process of developing and approving cost sharing requests during the proposal development process. However, department/school/college level support should be in place prior to requesting EVPRP involvement and approval. Tentative cost sharing plans developed and approved within the originating unit or college should be communicated to the Pre Award Office for their inclusion in the proposal budget. All cost sharing commitments must be fully documented on Univ. Form 32(s), prepared by Pre Award. Each letter of intent, new or renewal submission stands on its own, and cost 29 sharing is typically re evaluated for each resubmission. Cost Sharing Priorities The following priorities guide the allocation of central cost sharing funds for research proposals: Top priority will be given to mandatory cost sharing. Voluntary cost share support will be provided only in exceptional cases and primarily by the department level unit. A mandatory cost sharing requirement does not ensure a University contribution. Strategic research areas are given top priority among competing projects. Units must prioritize the proposed project through their contribution to the cost share: o Typically: 1/3 University and 2/3 provided by PI, Dept(s), and College(s). Contributions of external contributors will be evaluated on a case by case basis. o High matching requirement: Dept(s) and external contributors provide matching closer to 50% with balance split between the college(s) and EVPRP. Proposed equipment/facility projects should add new capability to the infrastructure of the university, and/or help to build future competitiveness.

Proposal Process Budget Considerations (PI & Pre-Award) Proposal must be properly costed: 31 Proposed budget should be sufficient to carry out all program deliverables Ensure consistent proposal budgeting Include college/department required budget items (AY salary, grad rates, etc) Ensure appropriate calculation of summer salary, grad fee remissions, NIH salary cap, subcontracts Cost Sharing Identify the proper F&A rate FINAL CONSIDERATIONS Plan Early So that you do not get pushed for time. Read the Program Announcement (PA, RFP) Read It, High Light Items, Question, Read It Again Watch for minimum and maximum funding levels Do not guess or deviate from the proposal instructions Work with your Pre Award Specialist 32 16

Pre-Award Services Contacting Pre-Award for Help E mail or Phone or Visit To Center Address (see link next slide) To Specific Specialist (see link next slide consider availability risk) Include as much information as possible TIMING Contact as early as possible (as soon as you even think about doing a proposal). It is never too early! Do not wait until you are ready to submit! More detailed one on one orientations are available for new faculty at any time.
