Accounting Policies: The County of Lackawanna Transit System Authority (the Authority) maintains its accounting records in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

1. Depreciation is not allowed as a project cost.
2. Certain expenditures that would not normally be included in the determination of net income are either allowable or unallowable for project purposes.
