Notes to SEFA
Accounting Policies: NOTE A—BASIS OF PRESENTATION: The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards includes the federal grant activity of the County under programs of the federal government for the year ended December 31, 2023, and is presented on the regulatory basis of accounting in accordance with the Kansas Municipal Audit and Accounting Guide. Expenditures include disbursements, accounts payable, and encumbrances. The information in this schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administration Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Because the schedule presents only a selected portion of the operations of the County, it is not intended to and does not present the cash and unencumbered cash balances and its cash receipts, expenditures, and budgetary results for the year then ended on the regulatory basis of accounting.
NOTE B—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: Expenditures reported on the Schedule are reported on the basis of accounting as described in Note A. Such expenditures are recognized following the cost principles contained in OMB Uniform Guidance (2 CFR Part 200, Subpart E), wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to reimbursement.
De Minimis Rate Used: N
Rate Explanation: The County did not elect to use the 10% de minimis cost rate. The Kansas Department of Health and Environment has allowed the use of an indirect cost rate for the Special Supplemental Nutrition Programs for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), equivalent to the rate used by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment.
