PAGE 1(3) Instructions for Expenditure report and Summary sheet

Detailed expenditure report (a)

In this worksheet you provide the detailed expenditure report for the current period
(Inception, Annual, Final) and total expenditure for the entire project duration.

1. Project information:

Fill in as required, the data will be copied automatically into the summary sheet (b)

2. Total budget:

You are required to report against each budget line of the last approved budget, e.g. if you
have an approved budget revision, you need to fill in the figures from the budget revision.

Budget for this reporting period:

Use the budget that you have used in your last fund request for the reporting period

Expenditure:

Reporting of expenditure can be done on accrual or cash basis. You need to report on
each line of your submitted budget. See below "Guidelines on Expense Reporting by
Budget Line Headings" for more information

Over/underspent and variance:

This is calculated automatically for the current period. If the variance is more than +/- 10%
on budget or sub-budget header and over 30% on all other budget lines a brief explanation
should be provided. If the variance is smaller than 30% or 10%, but the total amount
differs by a significant amount, an explanation needs to be provided (for example the
variance is only 7%, but total difference is 25'000USD).
Final Report: for the final report, the reporting will be on the entire project duration, and
over/underspent and variances will be addressed in regards to the total budget / total
expenditure (e.g. Column h / progress against budget)
