Support for nonprofit funding
Federal Grant Accounting & 2 CFR Part 200 Support
Federal funding requires more than accurate bookkeeping. Our hands-on experience includes grant budgeting, expense reviews, reimbursement reporting, cost allocations, and procurement documentation.
We help nonprofits manage these responsibilities with practical support informed by 2 CFR Part 200 and the requirements of their awards.
Practical support
Experience with the work behind the requirements.
Managing a federal award means coordinating financial records, supporting documentation, purchasing decisions, payment requests, and reporting deadlines. Our experience includes working through these responsibilities alongside nonprofit finance and program teams.
Reimbursement reporting
Organize financial information and supporting records for reimbursement requests.
Cost allocations
Support documentation showing how payroll and shared expenses are assigned to grants.
Procurement documentation
Help organize purchasing records, approvals, and selection documentation.
Financial reporting
Reconcile grant activity and explain spending, reimbursement status, and remaining budgets.
Audit and closeout preparation
Organize schedules, reconciliations, and supporting records for funder and independent-auditor review.
A grant financial snapshot
Understand the budget—and the reimbursement position.
Illustrative example — fictional data
| Measure | Amount |
|---|---|
| Award budget | $120,000 |
| Grant expenses paid and recorded | $42,000 |
| Budget remaining before outstanding commitments | $78,000 |
| Reimbursements received | $34,000 |
| Recorded spending not yet reimbursed | $8,000 |
| Status | Amount |
|---|---|
| Requested and awaiting a response or payment | $6,000 |
| Needs supporting documentation before submission | $2,000 |
The organization has $8,000 of recorded grant spending that has not yet been reimbursed. Of that amount, $6,000 has been requested and $2,000 needs documentation before submission. The $78,000 remaining budget is not cash available for other programs.
This example assumes reimbursement funding with no advances. Recorded expenses are not automatically approved for reimbursement.
The questions this makes visible
What needs follow-up? When might reimbursement arrive? How will the organization cover payments in the meantime?
