Notes to SEFA
Accounting Policies: The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the "Schedule") includes the federal award activity of The Great Lakes Museum of Science, Environment and Technology, (the "Science Center") under programs of the federal government for the year ended September 30, 2022. The information in this Schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards ("Uniform Guidance"). Because the Schedule presents only a selected portion of the operations of the Science Center, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net assets, or cash flows of the Science Center. Expenditures reported on the Schedule are reported on the accrual basis of accounting. Such expenditures are recognized following cost principles contained in the Uniform Guidance, wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to reimbursement.
De Minimis Rate Used: N
Rate Explanation: The Science Center has not elected to use the 10 percent de minimis indirect cost rate as allowed under the Uniform Guidance.
