David;

I'm not sure I understand the situation but will try to answer based what it
appears you are asking.

Presumably you will/have obtain(ed) NIH approval for the subagreement.

Yes, your institution will be entitled to your F&A rate on the first $25k,
however since it was an unforeseen event (at least perhaps
institutionally)there may be fundamental budget issues.

If the PI made a strong argument that the additional F&A would negatively
impact the project we would consider negotiating the total F&A that our
institution and the sub-recipient institution would recover.  In the past we
have usually been successful in negotiating something in relation to the
rates of the two institutions and the balance of the F&A remaining from the
original budget.

Subject: [RESADM-L] Subcontract Transfer?

Would appreciate "best practice" advice re charging of IDC on first $25K
portion of a subcontract (for NIH R01) when the sub-PI moves to another
institution.  Is that considered a chargable new subcontract (certainly the
admin work would seem to indicate so), or since same ongoing technical
effort and personnel, just "extension" of existing subcontract so no
additional IDC chargable?

 Thanks,  David
