John,

I don't know if anyone else has mentioned this, but also look in A21 under
Section C (the allowability, allocability stuff), and go to items 10 & 11
(they talks about consistency in estimating, accumulating and reporting
costs as well as consistency in allocating costs incurred for the same
purpose).

In honor of St. Patrick's Day, I'm signing off as

Patty McHawk

Hi John. In addition to what others have provided you might want to also
look at A-21, Sections B3. and F where it discusses allocation. The basis
is that each cost objective (funding source) receive an allocation of cost
proportionate to the benefit (no pun intended here) provided. Good luck.
