Budget Detail Worksheet (Attachment #1)
The applicant must provide a budget that (1) is complete, allowable,
and cost effective in relation to the proposed activities, (2)
shows cost calculations that demonstrate how the applicant arrived
at the amount requested, and (3) provides a brief supporting budget
narrative that links
costs with project implementation.
Applicants must submit the budget worksheet and budget narrative
in one file. The worksheet provides the detailed computation for
each budget item (often in spreadsheet format). The narrative justifies
or explains each budget item and relates it to project activities.
- Budget Worksheet. The budget worksheet must
list the cost of each budget item and show how the cost was calculated.
For example, costs for personnel should show the annual salary
rate and the percentage of time devoted to the project for each
employee to be paid through grant funds. Note: Total
costs specified in the budget detail worksheet must match the
total amount requested.
- Budget Narrative. The budget narrative should
closely follow the content of the budget worksheet and justify
all proposed costs. For example, the narrative should explain
how fringe benefits were calculated, how travel costs were
estimated, why particular items of equipment or supplies must
be purchased,
and how overhead or indirect costs (if applicable) were calculated.
The budget narrative should justify the specific items listed
in the budget worksheet (particularly supplies, travel, and
equipment) and demonstrate that all costs are reasonable.
Use the sample budget
detail worksheet as a guide in the preparation
of the budget worksheet and budget narrative.
Program Narrative (Attachment #2)
The program narrative must be double spaced, use a standard 12-point
font (Times New Roman is preferred) with 1-inch margins, and not
exceed eight pages. (Please number pages "1 of 8," "2 of 8," and
so forth.) The program narrative must address the selection criteria
in the order given. Submissions that do not adhere to the format
will be deemed ineligible.
