Common Terminology■ Orders = The actual orders sponsors place in CNP2000
■ Surveys = Where sponsors put in their projected requests in CNP2000
■ Direct Delivery Foods = aka brown box or commodities– Ex: Canned or frozen fruits and veggies, frozen ground beef
■ Processed End Products = the term used for processed food that uses USDA food – Ex: pizza, chicken and Mexican food
■ Entitlement =1. The federal value allocated to districts to use on USDA Foods 2. The federal dollar value of USDA food, food value not cash
■ S & H Fee = the fee assessed to agencies for the shipping and handling of all USDA foods
![Page 11: 2016 directors pre conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062522/58e7659b1a28ab5b2a8b611b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Entitlement■ What is Entitlement?
– It is the federal dollar value of USDA food– Example - 6/#10 can of applesauce
■ Entitlement + Shipping and Handling per case (out of pocket $$)– Example – Chicken nuggets
■ Entitlement + Processing Fee (out of pocket $$) + Shipping and Handling (out of pocket $$)
■ How Can Sponsors Use Entitlement?– USDA Direct Delivery Foods (formerly known as Brown Box or
Commodities)– Processed End Products like pizza, chicken nuggets or Mexican food– DOD Fresh Produce
![Page 12: 2016 directors pre conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062522/58e7659b1a28ab5b2a8b611b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Entitlement – How is it Calculated?■ USDA Formula
Prior Year Number of Lunches Servedx July Meal Rate + 12% Funding +/- Prior Year Balance = Entitlement
■ How is Entitlement Allocated to a Sponsor?■ Based on the sponsor’s total number of lunches reported from prior school
year and current federal meal rate.
Nevada School District 68,127 lunches x ($0.3044) $ 20,737.86

The Importance of Applications
Applications are the DNA of your program.■ They are the underlying support for the Benefits Issuance Document ■ They can determine additional levels of funding (Title I, etc.) ■ Additional Reimbursement Rates (severe need breakfast) ■ Can be a time and money saver if done correctly (CEP, Provision II)
![Page 51: 2016 directors pre conference](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062522/58e7659b1a28ab5b2a8b611b/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Areas of Improvement in Applications■ 34% decrease in the number of inaccurate eligibility determinations ■ 25% decrease in the number of applications that were missing the last
four digits of the primary signers social security number
This is a comparison of School Year 2014/2015 and 2015/2016 information from Administrative Reviews conducted in those cycles. Please see pages 49-51 of the Eligibility Manual for School Meals to see the requirements of all types of applications.

Issues encountered in the field■ Income incorrectly calculated
■ If the income frequency is different, you annualize each source of income and then add them together.
■ Income Annualized: ($300.71 x 52)= $15636.92; (624.00 x 26)= $16224.00
■ Annualized Income added together: $15636.92+ 16224.00 = $31860.92
