Bonus Commodity Type

When your state agency receives bonus products from the USDA, it distributes the bonus products to Food Distribution Program sponsors. There is no entitlement cost associated with these products, but the CNPweb reports the bonus entitlement value for your organization. You must also cover the related product fees.

The following table identifies the product expenses and payment options for bonus commodities:

	Payment Options

Product Expense	Entitlement	Invoice	Reimburse
Product cost	N/A
Service fee		Y	Y
Processing fee (when appropriate)		Y	Y
Excess storage fee (when appropriate)		Y	Y

Note:

Your organization uses the invoice or reimbursement payment option depending on your child nutrition program participation and your state agency policies and procedures.
