This form can be used to submit your initial application budget and any subsequent budget revisions.
Detailed instructions for this form are available on our website at www.arts.gov/manageaward. Unless you
are informe
d otherwise, you must match the NEA funds dollar for dollar.
All costs included in this budget, whether paid for with NEA funds or your cost share, must be directly
allocable t
o the
project activity, allowable, and adequately documented per the
General Terms & Conditions for NEA Awards. Actual, allowable expenditures must be reported on all
payment requests and financial reports.
Only
include costs expected to be incurred within the period of performance, which can begin no earlier
than the earliest allowable start date noted
in the guidelines for this NEA funding opportunity. Costs
such as salaries, wages, fringe benefits, and administrative overhead may need to be pro-rated to reflect
this period.
Provide a detailed breakdown of any large line items.
For equipment, clearly note items to be rented or leased versus those to be purchased. For purchases,
you must provide specific written justification for items with a unit value of $5,000 or more, and a useful
life of more than one year.
Do not include unallowable costs such as receptions/parties, alcoholic beverages, cash prizes,
construction, visa fees paid to the U.S. Government, unspecified foreign travel, or miscellaneous.
Unallowable costs cannot be supported with NEA funds OR with matching funds. Learn more about
unallowable costs in the How to Manage Your NEA Award Handbook.
This budget cannot include overlapping project costs with any other Federal award, or include matching
funds originating from a Federal source.
If you are revising your initial application, consider streamlining your project budget to help ease your
administrative burden associated with managing a Federal award. See the Project Description block on the
next page for more information.
