The information in these schedules is presented in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U. S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance) and the Texas Grant Management Standards. Federal and state expenditures include allowable expenses funded by federal and state grants. Allowable costs are subject to the cost principles of the Uniform Guidance and the Texas Grant Management Standards and include both costs that are capitalized and costs that are recognized as expenses in Brighter Bites’ financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
