## Loans, debts and sponsorship

Select a row in **Debt and Loans** to see its original debt, repayments, interest and dates. Sponsorship and other income also have their own records.

To compare debt across clubs, use **Total Debt** and **Monthly Debt Repayments**. They add up the **Original Debt** and **Monthly Repayment** of every loan the club has. Transfer instalments owed to other clubs are not included. You can filter on them in a [Club Advanced Search](https://docs.fmrte.com/scouting/search.md#find-clubs-by-balance-or-debt) or show them as read-only columns in club lists with [Add/Remove columns](https://docs.fmrte.com/help/settings.md#choose-columns-and-their-order).

## Wage contributions

When a player is transferred, the old club can still pay part of the salary. If the club pays or receives one of these, see [Wage Contributions](https://docs.fmrte.com/clubs/wage-contributions.md).

## Usual questions

### I have wage budget left, but the board limits my offer

**Wage Budget** is the total allowance. **Max Wage (aprox.)** is a separate limit for an individual offer.

1. Note the maximum offer in Football Manager and its weekly, monthly or annual unit.
2. Check that FMRTE's wage units match.
3. Adjust **Max Wage (aprox.)** and save.
4. Reopen the same negotiation with the same proposed playing time and compare the allowed offer.

### I selected a tycoon: why hasn't money arrived?

**Rich Benefactor** changes a funding/ownership setting. It does not immediately deposit cash or guarantee a payment date. To add a specific amount now, edit **Balance**.
