Institution Cash and In-kind Contribution

In this topic Hide

About this page

This Costing and Pricing Tool page is used to review the total cash and in-kind contributions provided by the institution for the project.

The page is divided into two sections for Institution In-kind Contributions and Institution Cash Contributions. For each of these sections, a total amount displays at the bottom. The Total Cash and In-kind Contributions for the institution displays at the bottom of the page.

GST is not applied to internal fund schemes. Amounts allocated to internal fund schemes are not included in price calculations in the Project Price page.

Indirect Cost Recovery  (ICR) is not applied to in-kind amounts or to internal cash contributions.

This page supports the Costing and Pricing Tool (CPT), which was implemented in version 7.7.0 in mid-2021. Research Costing and Pricing (ReCaP) is a separate tool.

 

Prerequisites

This page only displays and is editable if all of the following criteria is met:

  1. Cash and/or in-kind contributions are allocated to your institution in CPT (including allocations to internal fund schemes).

  2. You have access to the Institution Cash and In-kind Contributions page CPT023 via either a role or User Page Views. If not, contact your RME administrator.

  1. The corresponding eForm application is in an editable state for you.
    Background: If the eForm is read-only, this is usually because it is in a workflow state that does not involve you. In this case, CPT pages with editable elements will also be read-only. For example, as a researcher, when you submit an eForm for Grants Office or Review, you can still view it but you can't edit it. In this case, when you go to CPT via the Costing and Pricing button in the eForm, CPT pages with editable elements will also be read-only.
