(d) Matching Costs Matching costs, the nonfederal share of certain program costs, are not included in the Schedule except for the State’s share of unemployment insurance (see note 4).

(2) Relationship to Federal Financial Reports

The regulations and guidelines governing the preparation of federal financial reports vary by federal agency and among programs administered by the same agency. Accordingly, the amounts reported in the federal financial reports do not necessarily agree with the amounts reported in the Schedule, which is prepared on the basis explained in note 1(c).

(3) Indirect Cost Rate The State does not utilize the 10% de minimis indirect cost rate allowed under the Uniform Guidance.

State unemployment tax revenues and other payments must be deposited into the Unemployment Trust Fund in the U.S. Treasury. Use of these funds is restricted to pay benefits under the federally approved State unemployment law. State unemployment insurance funds as well as federal funds are used to pay benefits under the Unemployment Insurance program (CFDA No. 17.225). The amount reported in the Schedule for the Unemployment Insurance program included $2.2 billion in State-funded expenditures deposited into the Unemployment Trust Fund in the U.S. Treasury.
