  27. Requesting a Budget Modification If an account line has a negative available balance, or you are requested to perform a budget mod. to clear a requisition from NSF: • Determine if you can do a budget mod. w/o funding source approval. • If so, email Controller’s Office (usually Tracy, Sharon Picard in absence) and include: • Account lines you are transferring between, the amounts & if you need funding source approval Please transfer $1,000 from Office Exp (714030) to Ed Supplies (714221) and $500 from Mileage (714290) to Out of State Travel (716000). I do not need funding source approval for this modification.

  28. Requesting a Budget Modification • If Funding Source authorization is necessary to perform the budget mod., then ensure that Institutional Advancement (OIA) is involved as they are the dept. that communicates with the Funding Source. • OIA includes Larry Shumate and Marjorie Briody • For budget mod’s needing Funding Source approval, please provide OIA 2 weeks notice so that all paperwork can be completed successfully

  29. Mid-Yr Budget Projections • Mid-Year Budget Projections are usually due to the during the 2nd week of January • The objective is to project how much your grant will spend during THE CCRI FISCAL YEAR • These figures are compiled by the Controller’s Office in three categories, Federal Funded, State Funded, & Private Funded • Your grant is never specifically identified • The information is given to the Business Office who then reviews it and provides it to the State 2013’s Projection Presentation is on the Brown Bag website: www.ccri.edu/controller/brown-bag/then click on Budget Projections

  30. Mid-Yr Budget Projections • You will be emailed the Budget Projection file with brief instructions. • Prepare an excel file for EACH grant under you • There are two columns for you to fill in What’s in Banner NOW Your guess through 6/30/14

  31. Mid-Yr Budget Projections • To fill in the 1st column, go to FGIBDST for your grant, then copy the YTD Activity for each line • This column just needs what has ACTUALLY been paid so far

  32. Mid-Yr Budget Projections • For the 2nd column, estimate the expenses for the rest of the Fiscal Year (thru 6/30/14) • For Salary/Fringe: • Figure out cost of each pay period for each line • Go to NHIDIST for 1 payroll period • Find out what pay period was last posted in Banner • Figure out how many pay periods left for Fiscal Yr. • In FY14, 6/30 is a Monday. If Biweekly payroll posted thru BW25 (11/30), then 15.1 pay periods left. If thru BW26 (12/14), then 14.1 pay periods. • If Monthly payroll posted thru MN11 (October’s hours paid in Nov.), then 8 months/pay per. left

  33. Mid-Yr Budget Projections • Salary/Fringe, continued: (Cost per pay period) x (# pay periods left) = Amount for each salary/fringe line If Biweekly salary is $4,500 per pay period & Banner is posted thru BW25 (11/30/13), then 15.1 pay periods left Column 2 Biweekly Salary = 4,500*15.1 = 67,950 If Monthly wages approx. $8,000 per month & Banner is posted thru MN12 (Nov. 2013), then 7 pay per.’s left Column 2 Monthly Salary = 8,000*7 = 56,000 • FICA Lecturers is 7.65% of the Lecturer’s payroll

  34. Mid-Yr Budget Projections • For Operating type accounts (i.e. Office Exp, Travel, Miscellaneous), enter whatever you estimate will be spent during FY14 that HAS NOT already been paid for. • If your grant has an indirect and/or audit fee, do your best to calculate it or contact the Controller’s Office for assistance. • Make sure that your estimate DOES NOTEXCEED what you have left to spend! • Go to FRIGITD for the grant, and look at the Available Balance – this # should NOT be bigger than the total of column 2, estimated left to spend
