allocable

/ˈæləkəbəl/ adj

Able to be allocated.

Word Origin From Latin allocare 'to place to, assign,' from ad- 'to' + locare 'to place.' So allocable means 'able to be allocated or assigned.' The root locus 'place' gives us local, location, dislocate (put out of place), and collocate (place together). The idea is putting resources in their proper place.
