KR PD Budget – Total Direct Costs (TDC) F&A Type

CSU Ram Logo

When a sponsor restricts indirect costs, it is usually to a percentage of total direct costs with no F&A exemptions for budget line items like equipment or tuition. For this budgeting situation, the F&A Type for the KR PD budget must be changed to TDC in the Budget Settings lightbox, and then the Applicable Rate entered on the Rates page, F&A section, in both of the TDC line items (to keep it as simple as possible).

These settings and rate changes for a budget version should be done right after the budget version is created.
