Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures or expenses are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements, regardless of the measurement focus applied. The accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards, is presented using the modified accrual basis of accounting for grants accounted for in the governmental fund types and the accrual basis of accounting for grants accounted for in the proprietary fund types, as described in the notes to the County financial statements. Such expenditures are recognized following the cost principles contained in the Uniform Guidance, wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowed or are limited as to reimbursements. In addition, the outstanding balance of prior years’ loans that have significant continuing compliance requirements have been included in total federal expenditures.
The County has elected not to use the 10 percent (changed to 15 percent for grants awarded on or after October 1, 2024) de minimis indirect cost rate allowed under the Uniform Guidance.
