Audit 296648

Title: BASIS OF PRESENTATION Accounting Policies: Expenditures reported on the Schedule are reported on the accrual basis of accounting. Such expenditures are recognized following the 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: Y Rate Explanation: The Corporation has elected not to use the 10% de minimis indirect cost rate allowed under the Uniform Guidance. The Corporation has predetermined Facilities and Administrative (F&A) rates for fiscal year 2023. The base rates for other F&A cost recoveries range from 26% to 50% for fiscal year 2023. The purpose of the schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the Schedule) is to present a summary of those activities of West Virginia State University Research and Development Corporation that have been financed by the U.S. government (federal awards). Federal awards received directly from federal agencies are included in the Schedule, as are federal guaranteed loans disbursed by other sources. Additionally, all federal awards passed through from other entities have been included in the Schedule. The Corporation is required to match certain grant agreements, as defined in the grants, and these matching amounts are not included in the Schedule. The information in the Schedule is presented in accordance with requirements of 2 CFR 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 Corporation, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net position, or cash flows of West Virginia State University Research and Development Corporation.
