Charging unused flight costs to grants? by O'Brien, Maryellen (19 Feb 2024 13:00 EST)

    Dear Brain Trust,

     

    We have a PI that had approved purchased airfares for participants on an NSF grant.  Three participants cancelled for good reason and there is a bit over $2000 that is non-refundable.  He wants to charge the loss to the grant.  The best guidance I can find on this is to follow your university policy but we don’t have one that speaks to this type of situation.

     

    How does your organization handle it or what is your take on charging the grant for the loss?

     

    Thanks!

    Hi Maryellen,

    I have experienced a couple of instances in this situation.  My approach was that the cancellation cost could not be justified as a direct benefit related to accomplishing the award objectives. Therefore, it could not be charged to the grant.

    Good Afternoon Maryellen!

    I agree with Susan. In these types of situations, I refer back to the four cost principles with regards to the types of costs. In my opinion, these costs do not meet the standard of such principles for them to be incurred on the grant.

    You could try to get a waiver from the GMS, if there really was a good reason; you would have the back up you need.

    I agree.  This is a charge that would not be allowable because it is not benefiting the award.  Therefore, this would need to be covered by a faculty member’s discretionary account.
