Notes to SEFA

Accounting Policies: Basis of Presentation The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the Schedule) presents the expenditures of the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc. (AURA) under programs of the federal government and is presented on the accrual basis of accounting. The information in this Schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of the 2 CFR Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance), wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to reimbursements. Program income is reported at gross in the schedule. Negative amounts shown on the Schedule represent adjustments or credits made in the normal course of business to amounts reported as expenditures in prior years. Because the Schedule presents only a portion of the operation of AURA, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net assets, and cash flows of AURA. For purposes of the Schedule, federal awards include all grants, contracts, and similar agreements entered into directly between AURA and agencies and departments of the federal government and all sub-awards made to AURA by nonfederal organizations pursuant to federal grants, contracts, and similar agreements. Subrecipients Certain funds received under federal awards are paid to subrecipient organizations by AURA; these expenditures are presented in the “Passed-Through to Subrecipients” column within the Schedule and are related primarily to research and development awards received from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: AURA has not elected to use the 10 percent de minimis indirect cost rate as allowed under the Uniform Guidance.
