We would allow them assuming the estimate for the number of meals was made on a reasonable basis and the fact that we had no control over the last minute no-shows.  We incurred the cost in good faith in support of the project.

Subject: [RESADM-L] question about meeting/workshop expenses

 

How does your institutions handle meal expenses for registered attendees who do not show up nor cancel prior to federal grant funded meeting/workshop?  Do you allow the cost of these extra meals to be charged directly to the federal grant?

 

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
