Accrual Method

Use the drop-down list to select an accrual method for the award fee period. Valid options are:

  • Percent of Costs: Use the percent of cost award fee accrual method if you want to base the award fee accrual on a percentage of allowable costs incurred. If you select this method, the award fee is accrued by performing organization, as it is based on costs incurred. The amount of accrued award fee is limited by the total amount in the Contract Award Fee field for an award fee period. Any over-ceiling amount is recorded at the revenue level of the project using the owning organization. You must enter a fee percentage in the Award Fee Accrual Percent field to use this method.
  • Fixed Amount: Use the fixed amount award fee accrual method if you want to accrue the same amount for each period of the award fee period. Costpoint automatically divides the amount in the Contract Award Fee column by the number of periods in the award fee period and displays this amount in the Award Fee Accrual Amount field. You can modify this amount if necessary.
Award Fee Accrual Pct

Enter the percent of allowable costs that you want to accrue for the award fee period. This field is available only if you selected the Percent of Costs accrual method in the Accrual Method field. Costpoint computes the award fee by multiplying the fee percent entered in this field by the allowable costs at the transaction level. 

You cannot enter a fee percent in excess of 100% or a negative percentage in this field.

Award Fee Accrual Amt

This field displays the fixed amount calculated by dividing the total contract award fee by the number of periods in the award fee period. This field is available only if you selected the Fixed Amount method in the Accrual Method field. You can modify the amount displayed in this field.

Award Fee Act Amt

This field displays the cumulative-to-date award fee accrued for the award fee period using actual rates (PROJ_SUM. AWARD_FEE_ACT_AMT less OVER_ACT_AWRD_AMT). This value cannot exceed the Contract Award Fee. This field is updated by the Compute Revenue screen. 

Award Fee Tgt Amt

This field displays the cumulative-to-date award fee accrued for the award fee period using target rates (PROJ_SUM. AWARD_FEE_TGT_AMT less OVER_TGT_AWRD_AMT). This value cannot exceed the Contract Award Fee. This field is updated by the Compute Revenue screen. 

Note: If your Accrual Method is Fixed Amount, the values in the Award Fee Tgt Amt and Award Fee Act Amt fields are equal.
