  6. Managing the funds…

  7. Role of the Department Associate in budget management: • Prepare hiring papers (ES forms); LTE requests; student work authorizations and other related forms • Work with the new TAM system to facilitate recruitments • Prepare lump sum forms (overloads) – limit of 35% of previous year’s base during the calendar year • Process/approve student payrolls in HRS • Manage student payroll and LTE budgets • Manage Travel/Services & Supply budgets

  8. PERSONNEL FUNDS: • How will I know what I have available for hiring personnel within the department? • College budget officers will share a personnel listing with you. This includes vacancies assigned to your department as well as filled positions. • Any additional allocations to meet departmental needs must be requested from your dean. • Deans will request additional allocations through the Provost if unable to meet your needs from within the college. • Enrollment growth (based upon excess tuition revenue) • Provost funded

  9. Filled positions: • Unclassified staff • Faculty (tenured or probationary) • Ongoing academic staff (rolling horizon or fixed term) • Adjuncts hired on a year to year (emergency hire) basis • Classified staff • Department Associates, Program Associates, and Technicians • Bi-weekly payroll must be approved through HRS

  10. Vacancies: Important things to remember when hiring: • FTE available is based upon your department’s allocation (even if you have $’s, you still need FTE) • Avoid confusion regarding personnel dollars available within your department – be aware of: • Retirement assessment: 10% to the Provost from the base • Vacancy assessments—all vacancies not filled permanently: 7% to the University – current year • Initial budget intent philosophy

  11. Other personnel dollars: • Graduate Assistants: • Current Academic Year (AY) base: $20,720 • Maximum of 50% contract • Enrolled minimum of 6 credits/semester • FTE needed • LTE: • Work with HR to establish correct title and base • Hourly • No FTE needed • Bi-weekly payroll must be approved through HRS

  12. Student Payroll: • State payroll • Paid directly from one of your department accounts—you must have funds available in the state payroll budget line • All students are eligible • Work-Study • Federal program and your department receives an allocation • Student also must have an allocation in order to work for your department

  13. Summer Session Salaries: • No FTE needed for summer session contracts • Provost allocates summer instructional budgets to the colleges • Work with your Budget Officer to determine available instructional/administrative funds for your department

  14. Summer instruction is paid based upon daily rate • Determine daily rate by dividing academic year base by 180 • Five days equals one credit of instruction • Full-time summer load = 40 days • Exceeding 40 days requires Provost approval • Federal grants do not allow individuals paid all or in part on the grant to exceed full-time (40 days) without agency approval • Academic staff can be paid at a per credit rate if it is greater than their daily rate: • Lecturer: $1,400/credit • Senior Lecturer: $1,650/credit • Work with your Budget Officer to determine rates for low enrolled courses: <15 UG, <12 GR

  15. WinTerM Salaries: • Paid as an overload (lump sum) based upon: • Lecturer/Asst Professor $1,400/credit • Sr Lecturer/Assoc Professor $1,650/credit • Full Professor $1,850/credit • Low enrolled courses will be pro-rated based upon: • Enrolled number/15 x full pay amount – UG • Enrolled number/12 x full pay amount - GR

  17. Travel Policies: • Travel policies change frequently – important to stay informed • Check the travel link for specific information – Accounting Services website. • Watch the daily e-mail for travel change announcements • Questions: Carla Greiber, x2334 • Department Associates are very knowledgeable of travel rules and regulations—but when in doubt—CALL CARLA!

  18. Capital Equipment: • For budgeting purposes, capital is defined to include any item having a cost of $5,000 or more and a useful life of one year or more.

  19. When in doubt…. • Call Procurement and Materials Management (x2453) if unsure about anything, i.e. • Purchasing deadlines • Mandatory contracts • Best judgment: $5,000 or less including freight charges (if not on mandatory contract) • Simplified bidding: $5,000 - $49,999 (3 bids) • Official sealed bids: $50,000 or greater (call x2453 for assistance) • Purchasing card usage—can we or can’t we buy this on a p-card? • Call Brent Tilton, Director, x-2346 – to arrange department training on purchasing rules
