Notes to SEFA
Accounting Policies: The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards presents expenditures of all federal awards
programs of The Jackson Laboratory (the Laboratory), including awards passed through to the Laboratory
from other organizations (i.e., primary recipients), for the year ended December 31, 2023. The schedule is
presented using the modified cash basis of accounting. Negative amounts (if any) on the schedule
represent cash transfer adjustments to expenditures reported in a prior year. The Laboratory has not
elected to utilize the 10% de minimus indirect cost rate in Part 200.514 of the Uniform Guidance.
For purposes of the schedule, federal awards include grants, contracts, and similar agreements entered
into directly between the Laboratory and agencies and departments of the federal government and all
subawards to the Laboratory by nonfederal organizations pursuant to federal grants, contracts, and similar
agreements. The awards are categorized in accordance with the provisions of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal
Regulations 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 Laboratory, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net assets or cash flows of the Laboratory.
De Minimis Rate Used: N
Rate Explanation: Cost rate applied using negotiated rate approved by cognizant agency.
