                                                             SECTION 11 - EXPENSE



   <.B+>EXPENSE - ACADEMIC & ADMINISTRATIVE ORGANIZATIONS (94XXX) <.B->


   <.B+>DISCUSSION OF ALLOWABILITY<.B->

   <.B+>Why is it important to distinguish between allowable and unallowable
   costs?<.B->

   One of the most important considerations in coding an expense is whether the
   expense is allowable for reimbursement by the federal government.  Those who
   are accustomed to administering sponsored projects accounts have traditionally
   thought of "allowability" in the context of direct costs, that is, whether
   those costs are allowable under the specific terms of the grant or contract.
   In past years, administrators of Operating Budget or gift accounts generally
   did not have to concern themselves with this issue to the same extent.
   Beginning fiscal year 1991-92, our method for removing unallowable indirect
   costs from the federal government will change.  This change requires that
   everyone who submits any type of financial transaction must be more familiar
   with the rules for allowability of costs in order to properly code all
   transactions.  It is crucial that we correctly apply the new procedures to the
   University's financial transactions to comply with our obligations to the
   federal government.  Our ability to obtain federal grants and contracts as
   well as to collect indirect costs on these grants and contracts is dependent
   upon our performance in meeting federal requirements.  In other words, we must
   understand the distinction between allowable and unallowable costs and select
   the appropriate University accounts and general ledger expense codes whenever
   we record University expenses.

   <.B+>What do we mean by "allowable" and "unallowable" and how can you tell the
   difference?<.B->

   Certain expenses that are appropriate expenditures of University funds are
   ineligible for reimbursement by the federal government.  These costs are
   UNALLOWABLE for federal cost reimbursement purposes. This is the meaning of
   UNALLOWABLE as used in this document.  Note that these expenses may be
   permitted under University policy and may be entirely valid and appropriate,
   it is just that the federal government will not allow us to claim them as
   direct or indirect costs of federally sponsored projects.  Because we cannot
   claim these costs, we must record them in such a way to be sure that they do
   not fall into one of the pools of indirect costs that are reimbursed and that
   they are not charged directly to a federal government grant or contract.  IT
   IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT ALL COSTS THAT ARE UNALLOWABLE BE CLASSIFIED AS SUCH,
   AS FAILURE TO DO THIS CAN HAVE SEVERE NEGATIVE CONSEQUENCES FOR STANFORD
   UNIVERSITY.  SIMILARLY, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT ALLOWABLE EXPENSES BE CLASSIFIED
   INTO ONE OF THE ALLOWABLE CATEGORIES, SO THAT STANFORD CAN BE REIMBURSED FOR A
   FAIR SHARE OF ITS RECOVERABLE INDIRECT COSTS.

   <.B+>What defines allowable and unallowable? <.B->

   The federal Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-21 defines the
   standards for cost accounting in colleges and universities.  A-21 and other
   federal regulations define what is allowable and unallowable.

                                                              94000   -     94000

   <.B+>What costs are specifically unallowable? <.B->

   Costs are specifically unallowable under two general conditions:

   1) they are for an unallowable ACTIVITY (something you do and record using an
      account), or
   2) they are for an unallowable OBJECT (something you buy, a line item general
      ledger code).

   <.B+>Specifically Unallowable Activities:<.B->

      Organized fund raising
      Lobbying
      Commencement and Convocation are only allowable when charged to
         function 5 account (Student Services)
      General public relations and alumni activities
      Certain student activities, e.g., intramural activities, student clubs,
         etc.
      Managing investments solely to enhance income
      Prosecuting claims against the federal government
      Defending of prosecuting certain criminal, civil or administrative
         proceedings
      Housing and personal living expenses of university officers
      Selling or marketing of goods or services (does not include selling goods
         or services internal to the University by its service centers)

   All expenses in support of these activities are unallowable.  Unallowable
   activities are generally recorded in separate accounts specifically designated
   for these purposes.  Allowable general ledger codes may be used with these
   unallowable activity accounts because the unallowable account will ensure that
   the transaction will not be charged to the government. The federal government
   will not reimburse us for these costs.  However, these activities may be
   entirely appropriate and permissible University activities.  In fact, many are
   necessary to our survival as a university!

   In addition to these activities, certain costs are always unallowable,
   regardless of the activity they support.  These costs are unallowable by
   object and are typically recorded in general ledger expense codes designed to
   segregate these costs from allowable costs.

   <.B+>Specifically Unallowable Objects:<.B->

      Advertising (certain types are allowable)
      Alcoholic beverages
      Entertainment
      Fines and penalties
      Memorabilia, Promotional Materials (allowable if used for employee morale)
      Moving costs if employee resigns within 12 months
      Certain recruitment costs (e.g., color advertising)
      Certain travel costs (e.g., first class travel, trustee travel and
         subsistence
      Cash donations to other parties (such as donations to other universities)*

                                                              94000   -     94000

      Costs in excess of University severance policy (Admin Guide Memo 22.8)
      Interest (except certain interest specifically coded as paid to outside
         parties and authorized by the Controller's Office)
      Memberships in civic, community or social organizations, or dining
         or country clubs**
      Goods and services for the personal use of employees, including
         automobiles**
      Insurance against defects in Stanford's materials or workmanship


   *  Stanford may not make cash donations to other parties due to its nonprofit
   status. Small contributions in lieu of material goods for employee morale,
   health and welfare purposes are not considered  cash donations and should be
   coded using the General Ledger Code for employee morale, e.g, cash in lieu of
   flowers as a memorial.

   ** Certain of these items are not permitted by Stanford. See your
   Administrative Guide



   In the Chart of Accounts, codes that are unallowable or that may be confused
   with codes that are unallowable have been noted and cross-referenced.  Be sure
   to look at the cross-referenced codes and definitions of usage before deciding
   which code is most appropriate for recording a particular expense.

   In many cases the issue of determining whether a particular cost is allowable
   or unallowable is a complex matter.  When in doubt, consult with your local
   financial administrator.

 + Designated Credits


   <.B+>PROGRAM INCOME & INTERDEPARTMENTAL SALES<.B->

   CREDITS TO EXPENSE:  The following codes are used to credit expense for sales
   of goods and services to other departments.  These codes are used mostly by
   service centers and function 9 clearing accounts.  Sales between departments
   are generally handled via a Transfer of Expense or an Interdepartmental
   Request form rather than by cash or check.  When a department receives cash,
   it may need to be recorded as income rather than as a credit to expense.

   Please refer to the Administrator's Toolkit, Section 2, "Budgets/Accounts" for
   a discussion of the issue of how to record the receipt of cash.

   For accounts that are not service centers, see 94670 (Charges to Other
   Departments).

 2      GL CODE  TITLE                                   Definition of Code Usage


 1     CAPITAL EQUIPMENT-STANFORD OWNED

       Definition of capital equipment:  Acquisition cost of $1,500.00 or more
       and useful life of two (2) years or more.  Acquisition cost is the
       vendor's invoice price of the equipment including sales tax, less any cash
       trade discounts and educational allowances, and includes the cost of
       initial installation (excluding in-house labor), and any modifications,
       attachments, accessories, or auxiliary apparatus  necessary to make it
       usable for the purpose for which it is acquired.  (The acquisition cost
       shall exclude ancillary  costs such as federal excise tax, duty,
       in-transit insurance and freight.  Use code 94671 for ancillary costs.)

       Note that certain items that we may think of casually as equipment do not
       meet this specific definition of equipment.  For example, you might think
       of a phone answering machine as equipment, but unless it costs at least
       $1,500 (and has a useful life of at least two years), it must be
       classified as non-capital equipment.  See 94622, 94623,94661,94662 and
       94663.  DEFINITION = Modifications to equipment made after the initial
       installation are classified as capital equipment if the modification costs
       => $1,500 and increases the value and/or useful life of the original
       equipment.

       Modifications made for the purpose of maintaining the value of a piece of
       equipment are generally not capitalized.  Modifications which do not meet
       the criteria for capitalization should be coded to 94624, "Modification -
       Equipment. "

 1 TRAVEL

   Stanford University's policy on travel is explained in Administrative Guide
   Memo 36.7.  Definition is also provided by A-21, section J.48.

   <.B+>Definition of Travel Costs <.B->
   Travel costs are the expenses for transportation, lodging, subsistence, and
   related items incurred by employees who are in travel status on official
   business of the institution.  See Guide Memo 36.7.

   Costs incurred by employees and officers for travel, including the costs of
   lodging, other subsistence, and incidental expenses, shall be considered
   reasonable and allowable only to the extent such costs do not exceed charges
   normally allowed by the institution in its regular operations as a result of
   an institutional policy and the amounts claimed under sponsored agreements
   represent reasonable and allocable costs.  See Guide Memo 36.7R.

   <.B+>Methods of Reimbursement<.B->

   Travel costs may be charged on an actual basis, on a per diem or mileage basis
   in lieu of actual costs incurred, or on a combination of the two, provided the
   method used is applied to an entire trip and not to selected days of the trip,
   results in reasonable charges and is in accordance with the institution's
   travel policy and practices consistently applied to all institutional travel
   activities.

   <.B+>Air Travel Costs<.B->

   OMB Circular A-21 limits allowable air fare to the lowest available fare and
   describes allowable exceptions.

   Specific criteria used to determine whether travel arrangements meet
   Stanford's allowable air fare guidelines:
       o Leaves or arrives within a 1-hour window on each side of the
         traveler's desired departure or arrival time
       o Allows the traveler to choose airports
       o Is a nonstop flight if requested by the traveler
       o Does not include charter flights unless requested by the traveler
       o Does not require staying over Saturday night unless requested
         by the traveler
       o Does not include circuitous routing if a stopover is required
       o The class is reasonably adequate for medical needs of the traveler

       <.B+>NOTE:  Many departments have more restrictive policies, which <.B->
              <.B+>take precedence.<.B->

   All Stanford staff/faculty members traveling on business are encouraged to
   travel at the lowest available air fare.

   Whenever possible, the traveler should select the most economical flight

                                                              94530   -     94530

                                                             SECTION 11 - EXPENSE

 2      GL CODE  TITLE                                   Definition of Code Usage


   available.  The most economical flight includes restricted and promotional air
   fares provided this is reasonable given the traveler's schedule and potential
   need to change tickets.  Such air fares incur a penalty if tickets are
   cancelled or changed.  When a change of flight is unavoidable, the resulting
   penalty may be charged to an allowable general ledger code and to government
   sponsored projects.

   If different airlines offer flights that meet the traveler's needs and the
   traveler selects the more expensive flight, then the difference between the
   lowest allowable air fare and the one selected must be coded to an unallowable
   general ledger code and may not be charged directly or indirectly to
   government sponsored projects.

   If a traveler incurs charges in excess of the maximum allowable criteria
   listed above, the difference (up to coach fare) must be charged to an
   unallowable general ledger code and would not be chargeable as a direct or
   indirect charge to a government sponsored project.  Stanford policy does not
   permit reimbursement of fares in excess of coach; when a traveler prefers a
   higher class, then the traveler pays the incremental difference.

   On international flights of eight hours or more, Stanford permits
   reimbursement of business class fare if it enables the traveler to perform the
   business purpose of the trip and the traveler is on a tight schedule.
   Because federal guidelines allow only the lowest available fare, the
   difference between coach class and business class fare should be coded to
   Foreign Travel - Unallowable (94539) and the amount of the coach class fare
   should be coded to Foreign Travel - Allowable (94531).

   Visitors to the University should follow the same travel guidelines as
   employees.  Under some special circumstances, it may be necessary and
   appropriate to pay for business or first class travel in order to meet the
   requirements of visitors (such as a Head of State).

   Contact the Travel Office, x3-4070 or 3-9771, on any travel related questions.


   <.B+>Examples of Unallowable Travel Costs<.B->

    * Trustees' travel costs regardless of the purpose of the trip.

    * Trustees' subsistence costs whether travel related or not.

    * Travel costs incurred for an unallowable activity (e.g., fundraising,
   lobbying, etc. ).  NOTE: Generally, these costs will be charged to unallowable
   University accounts that are designated as supporting this unallowable
   activity.  Because these travel costs are being charged to UNALLOWABLE
   ACTIVITY ACCOUNTS, an allowable general ledger code should be used, unless the
   travel costs exceed the lowest available commercial discount airfare (as
   described above).

    * Moving expenses if the employee voluntarily leaves Stanford within 12
