EAST CAROLINA UNIVERSITY OFFICE OF GRANTS AND CONTRACTS Getting Started: How Do We Determine the Allowable Summer Salary? Tomorrow Starts Here grantsc@ecu.edu

DETERMINING THE ALLOWABLE SALARY The Annual Salary is the amount to be paid. To check the annual Institutional Base Salary minus stipends, check the PEISALH Banner INB Screen or the ECUbic: Annual Salary with FOAP Info by Banner ID or Name This must be mathematically proportional/correct based on the individual’s effort (FTE) and their Institutional Base Salary. The FTE is the amount of effort that relates to the amount of the total salary requested. (This field automatically defaults as 0). **FTE may only be up to 2 decimal places or whole percents. Example: 0.45 not 0.445. Tomorrow Starts Here grantsc@ecu.edu

DETERMINING THE ALLOWABLE SALARY SALARY CALCULATOR The Summer Grants calculator serves as the most accurate and consistent tool in helping you determine the allowable salary. There are two tabs: Summer FTE Check & Calculator and Summer Pay 11 month. Tomorrow Starts Here grantsc@ecu.edu

DETERMINING THE ALLOWABLE SALARY: 133% FORM FOR GRANTS The Summer FTE form serves as a check for compliance (FTE <= 1.0, 133%), a planning worksheet, and a reference sheet for keying your EPAFS. As part of the EPAF packet, you will need to complete the “Summer FTE & Calculator” worksheet in the “Salary and Salary Cap Calculators” Excel Document found on the OGC Forms Page. Tomorrow Starts Here grantsc@ecu.edu

DETERMINING THE ALLOWABLE SALARY: 133% FORM FOR GRANTS In the circled area, you will see the Total FTE and Total 133% so far. Remember the FTE amounts can not exceed 1.0 once we add the grant funding. Repeat this process for each additional grant job. Remember to keep checking your FTE and 133% totals. Note: OGC guidelines are based on calendar year. Tomorrow Starts Here grantsc@ecu.edu
