Title: BASIS OF PRESENTATION Accounting Policies: Expenditures reported on the Schedule are reported on the modified-accrual basis of accounting, except for Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program (HCV). Expenditures are recognized when the related liability is incurred following the cost principles contained in Uniform Guidance, wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to reimbursement. Expenditures for HCV Program are reported on a statutory basis as required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Such expenditures should equal the net ACC subsidy for the PHA’s fiscal period. The Assistance Listing Number (ALN), formerly known as the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) Number, is a five-digit number assigned in the awarding document for all federal assistance award mechanisms, including federal grants and cooperative agreements. Assistance listings are detailed public descriptions of federal programs that provide grants, loans, scholarships, insurance, and other types of assistance awards. The Sam.gov assistance listing is the publicly available online database showing all available Federally-funded programs. State or local government redistributions of federal awards to the Municipality, known as “pass–through awards”, should be treated by the Municipality as though they were received directly from the federal government. The Uniform Guidance requires the schedule to include the name of the pass–through entity and the identifying number assigned by the pass-through entity for the federal awards received as a sub recipient. Numbers identified as N/A are not applicable and numbers identified as N/AV are not available.
