Notes to SEFA
Title: Basis of Presentation
Accounting Policies: Revenues and expenditures in the Schedules are presented in accordance with the modified accrual basis of accounting and are generally in agreement with revenues and expenditures reported in the Citys 2022 fund financial statements. Such expenditures are recognized following the cost principles contained in the Uniform Guidance and the State Single Audit Guidelines. Under these principles, certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to reimbursement. Accrued revenue at year-end consists of federal and state program expenditures scheduled for reimbursement to the City in the succeeding year while unearned revenue represents advances for federal and state programs that exceed recorded City expenditures. Because of subsequent program adjustments, these amounts may differ from the prior years ending balances.
