CTA 50–970 • 28 January 2005
1. Purpose
This CTA is to be used as an authorization document under provisions of AR 71–32. Additional documentation for
authorization is not required.
2. Scope
This CTA provides flexible BOI, which may be used to acquire selected items of expendable/durable equipment and
provides guidance to using units for determining initial issue and stockage quantities of expendable/durable items
required to accomplish their mission.
3. Application
This CTA applies, as appropriate, to the TOE, TDA, and JTA units/activities Armywide and to individuals therein.
4. Explanation of terms
a. Expendable items.
(1) Items with a unit price of $100 or less, which are not consumed in use and are not otherwise coded "N" or "D"
in the Army Master Data File (AMDF).
(2) Office furniture items assigned federal supply classification (FSC) 7110, 7125, and 7195 with a unit cost of less
than $300.
b. Durable items. Items that are not consumed in use and retain their original identity but are not categorized as
nonexpendable or expendable. These are coded "D" in the AMDF and include nonconsumable components of sets, kits,
and outfits and assemblages; all hand tools with a unit price greater than $5 (FSC 5110, 5120, 5130, 5133, 5136, 5140,
5180, 5210, 5220, and 5280); and other nonconsumable items with a unit price in excess of $50 and not otherwise
coded nonexpendable. Commercial and fabricated items similar to items coded "D" in the AMDF are considered
durable. Durable items in this table are identified by a "D", annotated to the right of the NSN.
5. Abbreviations
Abbreviations used in this table are in accordance with AR 310–50. Prefixes for vessels are in accordance with chapter
2 of TM 55–500 and appendix G of CTA 50–909.
6. Special instructions
a. Items listed in this table will not be included in TOE/modified table of organization and equipment (MTOE)/
TDA/JTA or other CTA.
b. BOI or usage factors of expendable/durable items listed in table B–1 have been developed for determining initial
issue and initial stockage levels. Determination of replenishment quantities (for the expendable/durable items listed
herein) will be based on demand and anticipated requirements. Quantities shown herein may be increased by no more
than 10 percent without approval of the respective Army Commodity Manager or Service Item Control Center. Prior to
acquisition, quantities over the 10 percent increase require approval of the Army Commodity Manager or Service Item
Control Center.
c. The factors shown as BOI in this CTA are to be used as a guide for determining initial issue stockage quantities
of the item required to accomplish the unit’s mission. As an example, the computation in figure 1 below reflects the
quantity required by a 1,500 individual force for 90 days using the BOI "1 per 100 individuals per month."

CTA 50–970 • 28 January 2005
d. Nonstandard expendable religious education material (as listed in the unified Catholic, Jewish, or Protestant
religious education curriculums and the U.S. Army Chaplain Board Supplement), chapel program folders, communion
hosts, and host wafers may be requisitioned and procured as required.
e. Appendix B provides guidance pertaining to authorizations of expendable/durable items in instances where it is
impracticable to compile meaningful BOI. Appendix B should be consulted first when using this CTA.
f. Appendix C provides a NSN index with an item description.
g. Any item listed in this CTA appearing on the AMDF with an ARC of "N" (nonexpendable) will not be accounted
for on property books. If the item is identified by a "D" annotated to the right of the NSN in the CTA, it will be
accounted for in accordance with AR 710–2. If the item is not identified as durable, it is to be considered expendable.
7. Responsibilities
a. The director of the U.S. Army Force Management Support Agency is responsible for establishing policies and
procedures for this table.
b. Major Army commanders will ensure that—
(1) Expendable/durable items listed herein are removed from all authorization documents for which they have
proponency and that the CTA is listed in section I of these documents.
(2) Requisitions for expendable/durable items included in FSC in appendix B are restricted to items with an
acquisition advice code which does not prohibit issue and is reflected in the AMDF or the Army Reader Microfilm
System.
(3) Units/activities requisition items and quantities included herein only when they are able to receive, store,
maintain, and utilize the same. Economical use of expendable/durable items at all echelons of command is in
accordance with mission assignments and consistent with supply economy programs.
(4) Requirements for expendable/durable items which exceed by 10 percent the allowances shown in this CTA are
approved by the applicable Army commodity or class manager prior to acquisition.
(5) Acquisition and use of items in this CTA are restricted to the minimum number of types of similar items.
(6) Expendable/durable items are obtained and maintained by using units and activities in accordance with supply
procedures prescribed in those regulations listed in paragraph 7.
c. The commanders of the AMC major subordinate commands and the commander/directors of Service Item Control
Centers are responsible for—
(1) Reviewing, for purposes of approving or disapproving, all referrals regarding allowances for items not included
herein and those submitted in accordance with paragraph 6b.
(2) Announcing, through supply information letters, new expandable/durable items entering the supply system, with
their appropriate BOI or usage factor, pending inclusion of these items in the next change or revision to this CTA.
(3) Submitting to the U.S. Army Force Management Support Agency all pertinent thereto under provisions of AR
71–32.
(4) Ensuring—
(a) Expendable/durable items included herein are recommended for deletion from proposed TOE/MTOE/TDA/JTA
during technical review of these documents if the BOI or usage factor for the items can be used by the TOE/MTOE/
TDA/JTA unit/activity. If the BOI or usage factor cannot be used, develop one that can be used and furnish it to the
U.S. Army Force Management Support Agency in accordance with (3) above.
(b) Authorization of items in this CTA is restricted to the minimum number of types of similar items.
(c) Sterling silver, silver-plated, and luxury type items are not included in this CTA.
(d) All items listed in this CTA are coded as expendable “X” and are durable "D" in the AMDF.
