A PI at my institution is applying for a grant that requires 30% cost share
and he is interested in using building/lab space to fulfill this
requirement.  I realize that space is usually taken into account in an
institution's F&A costs.  However, my institution recently purchased the
building and it was not part of our F&A negotiations. (FYI-our indirect
cost rate is based on salaries and wages)

Can we (or should we) show the building (or a portion of it) as cost share
in our proposal?  Any feedback you can provide would be most helpful.

Thanks!

Angie Lopez
