FY2005 September Contract Accrual Estimates
On August 24, 2005, accrual estimate requests and forms were emailed to
contractors holding fish and wildlife contracts in pending, active, or
completed status or in closed status for less than one year. Contractors were
requested to provide accrual estimates for work performed but not billed prior
to September 26, 2005. Note the date: BPA must close its books a few days early
this year to allow adequate time for processing. However, the end of the
Federal fiscal year remains September 30, and thus you must include in your
accrual estimate all contract charges incurred though September 30 that will
not be billed to and received by BPA until after September 26.
If you plan to submit an invoice before the end of the fiscal year so that you
do not have to include it in your accrual estimate, your invoice must be
received by BPA no later than September 26, 2005.
If you are unable to invoice BPA by September 26 for all costs incurred through
September 30, you should include any unbilled costs in your accrual estimate.
