For Supplies: If there is a residual inventory of unused supplies exceeding <br />$5,000 in total aggregate value upon termination or completion of the <br />project or program and the supplies are not needed for any other federal <br />award, the Subrecipient must retain the supplies for use on other activities <br />or sell them, but must, in either case, compensate the federal government <br />for its share. The amount of compensation must be computed in the same <br />manner as for equipment. <br />B.
