The building is operated under Section 202 of the National Housing Act and regulated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) with respect to rental charges and operating methods. The project has one non-income producing unit and no non-income producing commercial space. Basis of Accounting: 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. Mont Pleasant YMCA Housing Corporation has elected to use the 10 percent de minimis indirect cost rate as allowed under the Uniform Guidance. The amounts reported as federal expenditures in the Schedule represent the expenditures of federal funds. The non-federal share of expenditures, if any, is excluded from the Schedule. The schedule of expenditures of federal awards is prepared on the accrual basis of accounting, except for the original advance amount of $3,146,675 included in the Federal expenditures. This amount is not included in revenue or expense in the accompanying financial statements. Recognition of Federal Awards: The Corporation received a capital advance under Section 202 of the National Housing Act regulated by HUD. The capital advance does not bear interest and need not be repaid as long as the housing remains available to elderly persons for at least 40 years. The original amount of the advance was $3,146,675. The 40-year commitment expires in 2035. Failure to keep the housing available for elderly persons would result in HUD billing the Corporation for the entire capital advance outstanding plus interest since the date of the first advance.
