Notes to SEFA

Accounting Policies: 1.GENERAL INFORMATION The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the schedule) presents the activities of all federal awards of 607 Concord Avenue HDFC. All financial assistance received directly from federal agencies as well as financial assistance passed through other governmental agencies or nonprofit organizations are included on the schedule.2.BASIS OF ACCOUNTING The Schedule is presented using the accrual basis of accounting. The amounts reported in the Schedule may differ from certain financial reports submitted to federal funding agencies due to those reports being submitted on either cash or a modified cash basis of accounting.3.RELATIONSHIP TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Capital advance, initially in the amount of $8,781,600 has an underlying mortgage note agreement with HUD, secured by the property. The note bears no interest, and repayment is not required as long as the facility remains available to very low income elderly or disabled persons in accordance with HUD regulations for a forty year period and therefore this balance remains unchanged. If the project defaults under the terms of this note, the entire capital advance (plus accrued interest from inception of the advance at a rate of 5.75% per annum) shall become due and payable at the option of HUD.4.BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying schedule includes the federal award activity of 607 Concord Avenue HDFC under programs of the federal government for the year ended November 30, 2022. The information in the Schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance).
