Budget Development

• Sample Budget Template
  This budget template will help you identify the expenses associated with your project. Your funder's application may require you to complete a different budget form.
• Budget Narrative Sample
  Additionally, you will be required to justify each expense in the budget with a written description of each budget line item.
• Federally Negotiated F&A Agreement
  Drake University has a federally negotiated rate for indirect costs. These are expenses the University accrues related to hosting your grant project.

Prior to submission, proposal budgets must be approved by a grants accountant. Contact a grants accountant for assistance.
