EQUIPMENT

  Permanent equipment (capital equipment) is defined as any item costing $5,000 or more with a life expectancy of one year or more. Shipping and installation charges should be included in the estimated cost.

Any equipment less than $5,000 (including computers) should be called "uncapitalized equipment."

Permanent equipment is excluded from F&A costs.

Uncapitalized equipment is subject to F&A costs.
