I have a researcher who wants to use documented educational discounts on
equipment purchases as in-kind cost sharing. We have not done this before
yet I can't think of a good reason why he couldn't do this. (This equipment
will be used in an engineering class.) Do other institutions use this as
cost sharing? If not, why not?

As always, thank you for your input.
