One of the most common questions during program implementation is whether a particular expenditure a program would like to make is allowable with federal funds, especially if the budget in the grant proposal was not detailed. In this Allowability and Cost Principles session, we'll will discuss the federal cost principles for allowability of costs, and how matching and cost-sharing are affected by these principles. In addition, this session will discuss program income, indirect cost, prior approval, and documentation.

Learning Objectives:

• Identification of where to find information about specific cost items
• Application of allowable, reasonable, and allocable with each grant expenditure
• Awareness of how to properly apply matching and cost-sharing

• Awareness of when prior approval is required for grant expenditures
• Application of proper documentation for grant expenditures
