Cen-Tex Family Services, Inc. (Cen-Tex) is a not-for-profit organization incorporated in the State of Texas on 31 January 1992 under 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Specifically, the corporation is organized to provide child development services to children 0-5 years of age; provide social, health, and nutrition services to enrolled families; provide training opportunities for enrolled families; offer intergenerational experiences for the elderly; and make distributions to organizations that qualify as exempt. Head Start Program is Cen-Tex’s largest program. The program provides educational and support services to low-income children and children with disabilities who have not reached the compensatory school age. The program’s goals are to bring about a greater depth of social competence in children by considering the total development of the child. Health, nutrition, education, and parental involvement services enable a child to function at an optimum level in this environment. The Child Care Partnership is an independent childcare center that contracts with Cen-Tex to operate Early Head Start classrooms in their facility in accordance with Head Start performance standards. Cen-Tex is also funded through the Child Adult Care Food Program (CACFP), which provides child care centers with funding to provide healthy meals and snacks for children. Cen-Tex depends significantly on third party reimbursement from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services - Head Start Program, and its expenses relate mainly to providing the Head Start Program. The cost of providing the program has been summarized in the statement of functional expenses. Certain costs have been allocated between program activities and administrative services benefitted. The governing body of Cen-Tex is its Board of Directors (Board). The Board appoints an Executive Director to administer the affairs of Cen-Tex. Cen-Tex is not considered a component of a city, county, or any government body. The governing board independently oversees Cen-Tex operations. As required by Head Start, Cen-Tex has a Policy Council consisting of parents and community members. Operating responsibility for Cen-Tex is the responsibility of the Board. However, the Policy Council has the responsibility to approve or disapprove certain general procedures, planning, and human resource management decisions.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES is when the stipulated time has elapsed, when the stipulated purpose for which the resource was restricted has been fulfilled, or both. BASIS OF ACCOUNTING Cen-Tex uses the accrual basis of accounting. Contracts and grants are recorded as revenue when the funds are considered earned, regardless of when cash is received. Cost reimbursement contracts are recorded as revenue when the costs are incurred and contributions are recorded as support when the funds are awarded. Expenses are recorded when incurred regardless of when cash is disbursed. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Management of Cen-Tex has evaluated subsequent events for disclosure through the date of the Independent Auditor’s Report, the date the financial statements were available to be issued. ESTIMATES The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. FUNCTIONAL EXPENSE ALLOCATION The financial statements report certain categories of expenses that are attributed to more than one program or supporting function. Accordingly, expenses have been allocated among the programs and supporting services benefitted. Expenses require allocation on a reasonable basis that is consistently applied. Expenses that are identifiable to a program are allocated to that specific program. Personnel and depreciation expenses are allocated based on management’s estimate of time and effort. All other expenses are allocated based on management’s analysis of individual accounts and transactions. FIXED ASSETS Fixed assets are stated at cost if purchased or fair market value at the date of receipt if donated. Purchases are capitalized if the cost exceeds $5,000 and there is a useful life greater than one year. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful life of the asset, which is 3-10 years for vehicles, furniture and fixtures, and 15 to 40 years for buildings and improvements. INCOME TAXES In accordance with Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, Cen-Tex is exempt from Federal income taxes. Consequently, no provision for Federal income taxes is included in the accompanying financial statements. 9 CEN-TEX FAMILY SERVICES, INC.
