Why does EPICS require a team
budget?
![Page 3: Budget presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051609/546eb11aaf79599f0f8b46ab/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

money to cover your team’s expenses.

Your budget expenses should align with your
project
What are you building?A database?
A soapbox derby car?

Databases, although time consuming do not require a
lot of material expenses.
Some projects however can be very costly such as the
Mars Rover project.

The EPICS staff will take the project scope into
consideration when evaluating your budget
submission.

Setting a budget is part of any design team’s
responsibility in the ‘real world.’ It is part of your
EPICS learning experience.

How do I get started?
![Page 10: Budget presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051609/546eb11aaf79599f0f8b46ab/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
All teams have been given $200 in their account. If your team will not be spending over $200 you will not need a budget. If you go over $200 you will not be allowed to purchase until a new budget has been filed and approved.
![Page 11: Budget presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051609/546eb11aaf79599f0f8b46ab/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• The $200 needs to be included in your budget form, and you need to take it into account when you are thinking about how much you’ll need.

Instructions for this formAt the beginning of the fall semester, fill out the predicted expenditures for both the fall and spring semesters. For each project, use the full project name, not an acronym. This makes the purpose of your expenditures much clearer. When you print this form, please print it in the landscape layout, as it is given to you. Having all the budgets with the same layout makes them much more manageable.
Each month, you will receive an update of what your team has spent. This may differ from the actual price of your product because of costs like shipping. Please enter the total cost you received under "actual expenditures" when you receive this form.
Thanks for your help! Following these instructions carefully really helps Pam and others who have to work with these forms. If you have any questions, you can ask your advisors, TA, or Pam. They would all be glad to help you.
