This virtual training will review the financial management and allowable cost sections of 2 CFR Part 200 – Uniform Administrative Cost Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (the Uniform Guidance, or UGG). All non-federal entities must maintain proper cash management procedures. This webinar will discuss the applicable financial management rules, including how to record and use program income, applying credits to federal awards in line with the regulations, and how to properly document matching funds and services. This presentation will also provide participants with an overview of the cost principles and selected items of cost found in Part 200 of the Uniform Grants Guidance. This presentation will also include an overview of best practices for compliant allowability procedures and internal controls, and review all relevant factors that non-federal entities must consider when determining allowability of costs.
