Is an itemized budget required by OSP on NIH programs that only need a modular budget?
Although NIH has adopted the modular budget format for budgets of $250,000 per year and less, Clemson University, as do many universities, requires a detailed itemized budget for internal purposes. Under Cost Accounting Standards (CAS), the burden is on the University to apply costs consistently. Without a detailed budget, OSP does not have any way to assure costs are in general compliance with CAS. An Internal Budget form is now included as the last page of the Proposal Processing Form.
