The accompanying schedules of expenditures of federal awards and state financial assistance present the activity of all federal awards and state financial assistance programs of the Board. Middlesex County Board of Social Services is defined in Note 1 of the basic financial statements. The information in these schedules is presented in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance) and New Jersey OMB’s Circular 25-12, Single Audit Policy for Recipients of Federal Grants, State Grants and State Aid. All federal and state awards received directly from federal and state agencies, as well as federal awards and state financial assistance passed through other government agencies are included on the schedules of expenditures of federal awards and state financial assistance.
Amounts reported in the accompanying schedules agree with amounts reported by the Board’s financial statements. Expenditures from awards are reported in the Board’s financial statements as follows: Federal Expenditures: $33,941,008, State Expenditures: $19,039,974, Other Expenditures: $13,665,223, Total $66,646,205
The regulations and guidelines governing the preparation of federal and state financial reports vary by federal and state agency and among programs administered by the same agencies. Accordingly, the amounts reported in the federal and state financial reports do not necessarily agree with the amounts reported in the accompanying Schedules, which is prepared on the modified accrual basis of accounting as explained in Note 2.
As of December 31, 2025, the Board is not the guarantor of any loans outstanding.
Each of the grantor agencies reserves the right to conduct additional audits of the Board’s grant program for economy, efficiency and program results. However, the Board’s administration does not believe such audits would result in material amounts of disallowed costs.
Major programs are identified in the Summary of Auditor’s Results section of the Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs.
