What is the F&A negotiated rate and will this vary by sponsor?
UALR’s F&A or IDC negotiated rate is 41% of modified total direct cost (MTDC). The off-campus rate is 24%. The regular negotiated rate is required for all sponsored projects regardless of the sponsor or type of funding. Some programs have a printed IDC rate restriction either in the program guidelines or grant announcement or in a company’s written policies. Documentation of a rate restriction must be provided with the PAR and the proposal or agreement upon submission of the project to ORSP.
