How do you reflect budget adjustments on planning estimates for increases/decreases in federal funding when the amount of funds remains constant?
You should check with your Finance budget analyst if you need to, or want to, document individual grant changes through planning estimate adjustments; your analyst may require such documentation from you. Some budget adjustments require specific planning estimate adjustments, e.g., employee compensation, and issues that Finance is tracking on a statewide basis. In this case, offsetting adjustments would need to be made to realign the planning estimate totals with the total federal funds. Regardless of planning estimate adjustments, your federal funds planning estimates need to be in agreement with your Supplementary Schedule of Federal Funds.
