Reporting Requirements for Annual Financial Reports of State Agencies and Universities

Pass-Through Activity

Special Conditions
Pass-through reporting related to the Texas A&M Research Foundation (Agency 014)

Each year, Agency 014 issues a separately audited SEFA that is not included in the state’s SEFA. However, since Agency 014 is part of the state’s financial reporting entity, special reconciling items are needed to get the correct accounting effect of pass-throughs to and from Agency 014 and other state agencies.

The A&M System office makes eliminating entries for components within its own system. Part of those entries takes into account the elimination for internal pass-throughs to and from Agency 014 in order to avoid the double counting of federal revenue and federal expenditures on the operating statement. See the following for further explanations of each scenario.

Reporting for Agency 014

Report pass-throughs from other agencies as federal revenue on the operating statement and under the direct federal revenue column in SEFA.
