Question

Your program has an RDT&E-funded project scheduled to start in January 2018 which is expected to take 17 months to complete. The project is expected to cost a total of $17 million (then-year dollars), with cost expected to be incurred at a rate of $1 million per month. It has been determined that no contractor is willing to accept a contract for less than the entire 17 months of effort. What is the correct amount to include in your budget request for this project? $10 million for FY 2018 and $7 million for FY 2019 $9 million for FY 2017 and $8 million for FY 2018 $17 million for FY 2018 and $0 million for FY 2019 $12 million for FY 2018 and $5 million for FY 2019

Explanation / Answer

appropriations are subject to the Annual Funding Policy...so $17 million for FY 2018 and $0 million for FY 2019

sorry about that , if the contract period is 12 months or less in duration, or if the contract produces a single outcome it's based on annual funding...otherwise incremental funding so $10 million for FY 2018 and $7 million for FY 2019
