Hi all,

Question regarding modular budgets and F&A calculations on a budget that has no exclusions from the base…

Example:

Total Direct Cost: $49,941

Module Request: $50,000 (nearest module)

Do we calculate F&A off of the Module Request ($50,000) or our Total Direct Cost amount ($49,941)?

Note: there is nothing to exclude from the base (no tuition, no patient care, no equipment etc.) I know that if items are excluded in accordance with your approved F&A rate agreement you take the MTDC base and calculate the F&A from that amount for a modular budget.

Thank you,

Candice
