Forward(Recorded Webinar) The Allowable Cost System
Register now to receive access to the recorded webinar on 9/4/2025. Live webinar registrants will automatically receive access to the recorded webinar.
Fundamentally, a grant from the federal government is simply an agreement by the government to reimburse the grant recipient for certain costs of certain activities. The limits of the government’s agreement are expressed primarily through the federal cost principles and are defined as “allowable costs.”
Join Feldesman attorney Ted Waters to evaluate and discuss the scope and limitations on reimbursable costs, and key risk areas inherent in this system.
