Hello colleagues,
I've asked around but haven't gotten any clear guidance on this
question:

Our institution's current federally-negotiated F&A rate is 46% of
Salaries and Wages. However, the State Board of Education's policy is to
allow 25% of Total Direct Costs on all state grants.  In some
circumstances, therefore, there is a potential for us to collect F&A in
excess of our federally-negotiated rate (i.e., on state grants that are
primarily Other Direct Costs with little salary).  Is this allowable?

Thanks in advance for your advice!
