The purchase cost of durable equipment Sample Clauses

The purchase cost of durable equipment. Only equipment purchased for the purposes of carrying out the action can be charged as direct costs. To be considered as eligible, a cost must be determined according to the beneficiary's usual accounting practice and each beneficiary must apply its usual depreciation system for durable equipment. Depreciation is charged in each relevant periodic report. Depreciated costs of equipment can never exceed the purchase price of the equipment. It is expected that the beneficiary calculates depreciation on the durable equipment that it purchases. Depreciation cannot be spread over a period exceeding the useful life of the equipment. Beneficiaries should be aware that not doing so and charging the full price of an asset in one single year might be considered an "excessive" cost, as referred to in Art. II.14.3 (g) of the ECGA, and therefore be considered ineligible. 14.1 of ECGA above. Only the portion of the equipment used on the project may be charged. The amount of use (percentage used and time) must be auditable. In some cases (e.g. Infrastructure) cost for equipment can include all those costs necessary for the asset to be in working condition for its intended use (site preparation, delivery and handling, installation, etc.). A particular regime applies to all projects financed under the Programme "Research Potential", which is part of the FP7 Specific Programme "Capacities". The acquisition of research equipment is one of the core activities of the Research Potential Programme. Consequently, the EU will bear up to the total cost of the research equipment (except VAT), regardless of the depreciation used by the beneficiary29. In this specific context, the beneficiary could therefore charge up to the full price of equipment identified in Annex I. In any event the equipment cannot be charged to any other EU project. This exception, having been established from the outset in the Specific Programme "Capacities", shall apply to all projects of the Research Potential Programme financed as of the beginning of FP7. An explicit reference to this specificity shall be introduced in all future Work Programmes of the "Capacities" Programme as of 2011. a) The cost must be economic and necessary. b) Only the portion of the equipment used on the project may be charged. The amount of use (percentage used and time) must be auditable. Thus, if the equipment is used for other projects, and/or for other activities, part of the equipment cost will be charged to these projects/activ...
