Notes to SEFA
Title: Basis of Presentation
Accounting Policies: 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. The Board has elected not to use the 10-percent de-minimis indirect cost rate allowed under the Uniform Guidance. Various reimbursement procedures are used for Federal awards received by the Board. Consequently, timing differences between expenditures and program reimbursements can exist at the beginning and end of the year. Accrued balances at year-end represent an excess of expenditures over cash reimbursements received to date. Generally, accrued or deferred balances caused by differences in the timing of cash reimbursements and expenditures will be reversed in the remaining grant period. For purposes of the Schedule, federal awards include all grants, contracts and similar agreements entered into
directly between the Board and agencies and departments of the federal government and all subawards to the Board by nonfederal organizations pursuant to federal grants, contracts and similar agreements. The awards are classified into Type A and Type B categories in accordance with the provisions of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Programs classified as Type A are as follows: Special Education Programs
Child Nutrition Cluster
Education Stabilization Fund
De Minimis Rate Used: N
Rate Explanation: The auditee did not use the de minimis cost rate.
