Title: Basis of Presentation Accounting Policies: The County accounts for Federal and State funding using the modified accrual basis of accounting. 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 liability is incurred, if measurable, except for certain compensated absences, claims and judgments, which are recognized when the obligations are expected to be liquidated with expendable available financial resources. Federal and State 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 revenue until earned. Generally, unused balances are returned to the grantor at the close of specified project periods. De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: The County has elected not to use the de minimis indirect cost rate allowed in the Uniform Guidance. The accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal and State Awards (the “Schedule”) includes the Federal and State grant activity of the County under programs of the Federal and State 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 and State Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance) and Texas Management Grant Standards (TxGMS). Because the schedule presents only a selected portion of the operations of the County, it is not intended and does not present the financial position, changes in net position/fund balance or cash flows of the County.
