Accounting Policies: Note 1 Basis of AccountingThe Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards is prepared on the cash basis of accounting.Certain federal grants received by the School District are funded on a cost-reimbursement basis whereby expenditures are subject to audit by various government agencies prior to submitting reimbursement. Under such circumstances and in a manner consistent with the basis of accounting described above, expenditure balances for these grants represent the disbursement of funds received during the course of the year. This treatment results in timing differences, which are resolved over the term of the grant period.Note 2 Reporting EntityThe School District, for purposes of the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards, includes all funds for which the School District is financially accountable.Note 3 Pass - Through AwardsThe School District receives certain federal awards in the form of pass-through awards from the State of Nebraska and other various agencies.
