Under an Operating Budget approach, person-year controls would be eliminated.... The system calls for one budget only, and a nominal split between salaries and other operating expenditures. Funds can be transferred from one component to the other but are based on a rate called the "transfer price". A transfer price is necessary because not all components of the salary budget are in a department's appropriations(e. g., employee benefit costs) and because the use of salary funds results in direct costs to and expenditures by certain central agencies such as Public Works’ costs for accommodation. 3, record 11, English, - transfer%20price
