Title: BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Accounting Policies: Expenditures are reported on the Schedule using 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 expenditures for the Head Start program are based on program regulations for when an obligation is incurred, which differs from generally accepted accounting principles in that services from contracts and certain property acquisitions are incurred when there is a written commitment to obtain the services or property rather than when the services or property are received, provided that the obligations are liquidated within 90 days.
Pass through entity identifying numbers are presented where available.
PCAC has elected not to use the 10 percent de minimis indirect cost rate under Section 200.502 and the applicable cost principles used per 2 CFR 200. All expenditures of the Head Start program are considered direct costs.
