Guiding Principles for Determining Allowable or Unallowable Costs Clause Samples

This clause establishes the fundamental criteria used to decide whether specific costs are permitted or prohibited under a contract. It typically outlines the standards, such as reasonableness, allocability, and compliance with applicable regulations, that must be met for a cost to be considered allowable. For example, it may specify that only costs directly related to contract performance and not expressly disallowed by policy are acceptable. The core function of this clause is to provide a clear framework for cost evaluation, thereby reducing disputes and ensuring consistent application of cost principles.
Guiding Principles for Determining Allowable or Unallowable Costs. The following sections provide principles to be applied in determining if costs are allowable or unallowable. A particular item's exclusion from these sections shall not be construed as a determination that the excluded item is either allowable or unallowable. The determination of allowance in each case must be based on the treatment or standards provided for similar or related items of cost.
