[Description] Make sure that equipment is an allowable expense under the grant program guidelines. If so, give exact specifications for any equipment that must be purchased or leased to carry out the project. On federal grants and contracts, equipment or equipment components costing less than $5,000 are categorized as commodities. The equipment threshold on nonfederal grants and contracts may be lower and varies. Check the program guidelines. [Category]
