Cost Sharing Erik A. Thelen 23 Oct 2002 13:18 EST

When you include cost shared effort in a federal grant budget, are you
silent on the F&A associated with the cost-shared salary and fringes, or do
you show the F&A associated with the cost-shared salary and fringes as cost
share?  It seems to me that if you DON'T charge the F&A associated with
cost-shared salary and fringes, there's a consistency problem.  But if you
DO cost share the associated F&A, your institution has to set aside real
dollars in a companion account to satisfy the allocability requirement (and
where would those dollars come from?).  I have seen both practices
reflected in subcontract budgets from other institutions.

What is your institution's practice?
