H.R. 2146Intent is to greatly improve the tracking of
federal spendingWould require recipients of Federal funds, as
either Prime or Sub-recipient, to report various characteristics of the received grants
Bill requires creation of a single collection platform for this information
Very similar to ARRA required reporting

H.R. 2146At a minimum, the following will be required not less
than every quarter:Identification of recipientIdentification of executive agencyIdentification of federal award and sourceAmount of federal funds received, expended, or obligatedDetailed list of projects/activities for which funds were
expendedStatus as prime or sub-award, and any sub-awards issuedAdditional information reasonably related to the receipt
and use of Federal funds as the Board shall, by rule, require

H.R.2146Already approved by House Committee on
Oversight and Government ReformBill is very popular among lawmakers-they
cite accountability, reduction of fraud, transparency
Bill is unpopular among universities, who cite increased bureaucracy and cost

Advisory Draft – Voluntary Uncommitted Cost Sharing
7
![Page 8: 1. 1.Welcome and Introductions 2.H.R. 2146 – ARRA Type Reporting to all Federal Awards 3.Advisory Draft – Voluntary Uncommitted Cost Sharing 4.SAM Restricted](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051619/56649d385503460f94a11b2c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Advisory Draft-VUCSNACUBO is working on how VUCS should be
treated for functional expense purposes
Guidance based on hypothetical question – can institutionally funded research effort (instruction, research, public service) be reported as VUCS if the activities are separately budgted?
8
![Page 9: 1. 1.Welcome and Introductions 2.H.R. 2146 – ARRA Type Reporting to all Federal Awards 3.Advisory Draft – Voluntary Uncommitted Cost Sharing 4.SAM Restricted](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051619/56649d385503460f94a11b2c/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Advisory Draft-VUCSVUCS are effort or other costs incurred that
are over and above the amount committed and budgeted for in a sponsored agreement
In essence, the institution is incurring costs related to a research project as cost sharing
OMB issued clarification in 2001 related to treatment of VUCS in F&A calculation
9
![Page 10: 1. 1.Welcome and Introductions 2.H.R. 2146 – ARRA Type Reporting to all Federal Awards 3.Advisory Draft – Voluntary Uncommitted Cost Sharing 4.SAM Restricted](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051619/56649d385503460f94a11b2c/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Advisory Draft-VUCS“VUCS should be treated differently from
committed effort and should not be included in the organized research base for computing the F&A rate or reflected in any allocation of F&A costs”
OMB Guidance did not dictate VUCS treatment for classification of functional expenses in Financial Statements
10
![Page 11: 1. 1.Welcome and Introductions 2.H.R. 2146 – ARRA Type Reporting to all Federal Awards 3.Advisory Draft – Voluntary Uncommitted Cost Sharing 4.SAM Restricted](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022051619/56649d385503460f94a11b2c/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Advisory Draft-VUCSGuidance is still in draft form: “Functional
expense reporting should not be driven solely by budget allocations, but rather by the actual amounts spent on a particular function”
To the extent that VUCS can be associated with a specific institutional research objective, it should be included in the functional expense category of research

SAM – Review Standards and Accounting Methods for
Reporting Restricted Research Expenditures (SAM) was issued by the THECB in 2005
Sets standards and accounting for reporting restricted research
Defines the concept of “restricted research”Definition excludes Indirect Cost Recovery
funded expenditures from consideration in “restricted research”, although IDC can be reported in the research survey for total research

SAM – Advisory CommitteeAdvisory Committee on Revision to SAM met
on February 10th
Editorial changes were proposed to SAM to add clarity
To add further clarity, SAM for Reporting Restricted Research Expenditures for the Research Development Fund was issued after May 24, 2011
Guidance in this is very similar to original SAM

SAM – Advisory CommitteeThreshold for SAM for RDF is $250,000Revisions were made again on July 11, 2011,
and will be available for public comment on or about July 29, 2011
Gives clear definition of restricted research as it relates to RDF: “Only selected state appropriated grant programs having a competitive award process may be considered restricted research (See Appendix A). State appropriations directly to institutions through formula or special item funding do not qualify as restricted research.”
