Use this subtask to select project settings options that will apply to all companies in your database. You should make these selections during system initialization.
This option is the default setting for rate application to projects. During the rate application process for this method, the system multiplies the YTD indirect rate by the sum of all year to date costs to derive YTD burden.
YTD burden = Current YTD indirect rate multiplied by the sum of all YTD costs.
Current period burden will be the difference between the YTD burden for the prior period and the YTD burden for the current period.
Current period burden will NOT be the current period rate multiplied by the current period costs.
Select this option to enable an alternate method of rate application to projects.
Current Period burden = Current Period indirect rate multiplied by current period costs
YTD burden = the sum of all prior periods' current period burden
