Title: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Accounting Policies: Basis of Presentation
The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the “Schedule”) includes the federal award activity of the Coalition under programs of the federal government for the year ended September
30, 2024. The information in this schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements 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 Coalition, it is not intended to and does not present the financial
position, changes in net assets, or cash flows of the Coalition.
Expenditures reported on the Schedule are reported on the accrual basis of accounting. Such expenditures are recognized following the cost principles contained in the Uniform Guidance, wherein certain types of
expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to reimbursement. For cost reimbursement grants, federal awards are considered expended when the transactions occur. For program income, federal awards are
considered expended when funds are received or used.
Indirect Cost Rate
The Coalition has elected not to use the 10-percent de minimis indirect cost rate allowed under the Uniform Guidance.
De Minimis Rate Used: N
Rate Explanation: The indirect cost rate is negotiated per contract with each grantor. The Organization aims for the 10% de minimis cost rate but several grantors state in their applications what can be used and those rates are generally below 10%, or not provided at all.
