Notes to SEFA
Accounting Policies: 1. GENERAL
The Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards presents the activity of all applicable federal award
programs of Edinburg Consolidated ISD. The District’s reporting entity is defined in Note I of the
financial statements. Federal awards received directly from federal agencies, as well as federal
awards passed through other government agencies, are included on the Schedule of Expenditures
of Federal Awards.
In accordance with TEA instructions, federal funds for the School Health and Related Services
(SHARS) have been excluded from the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards.
Federal funds for the Child Nutrition Cluster, School Health and Related Services (SHARS),
Medicaid Administrative Claims (MAC), and revenues for indirect costs are reported in the General
Fund. All other federal programs are accounted for and reported in Special Revenue Funds.
2. BASIS OF ACCOUNTING AND PRESENTATION
The accounting and financial reporting treatment applied to a fund is determined by its
measurement focus. The Governmental Fund types are accounted for using a current financial
resources measurement focus. All Federal grant funds were accounted for in a Special Revenue
Fund or, in some instances, in the General Fund which are Governmental Fund type funds.
With this measurement focus, only current assets and current liabilities and the fund balance are
included on the balance sheet. Operating statements of these funds present increases and
decreases in net current assets. The modified accrual basis of accounting is used for the
Governmental Fund types. This basis of accounting recognizes revenues in the accounting period
in which they become susceptible to accrual, i.e., both measurable and available, and expenditures
in the accounting period in which the fund liability is incurred, if measurable, except for
unmatured interest on General Long-Term Debt, which is recognized when due, and certain
compensated absences and claims and judgments, which are recognized when the obligations are
expected to be liquidated with expendable available financial resources.
Federal grant funds are considered to be earned to the extent of expenditures made under the
provisions of the grant, and, accordingly, when such funds are received, they are recorded as
unearned revenues until earned.
The period performance for federal grant funds for the purpose of liquidation of outstanding
obligations made on or before the ending date of the federal project period extended 90 days
beyond the federal project period ending date, in accordance with provisions in Section H, Period
of Performance of Federal Funds, Part 3, Uniform Guidance Compliance Supplement.
