Now that departmental procurement cards are available for unforeseeable small expenditures (under $100) for research projects, the Agricultural Research Program (ARP) is no longer maintaining a petty cash fund. When there is unexpected need for small expenditure, principal investigators and research associates can apply for reimbursement for out-of-pocket purchases by starting with the Petty Cash Form at http://businessfinance.ncat.edu/FORMS%20LIST.htm. Once this form has been signed by the project principal investigator and the appropriate department head, the form and documenting receipt should be brought to Shirl Hines at C. H. Moore for a final OK before the form is ready to present at the University Cashier’s Office.
