Finding 2022-001: Correction of Prior Year Error
Criteria: The YMCA should have adequate internal controls over financial reporting such that material misstatements of the financial statements would be prevented, detected and corrected on a timely basis.
Condition: The YMCA had a prior period adjustment to correct balances, including the understatement of previously reported accounts receivable and understatement of net assets as of December 31, 2021.
Cause: The YMCA presents as revenue during the year 2022 invoices that corresponds to services provided during the year 2021, resulting in the understatement of prior year accounts receivables.
Effect or Potential Effect: Net assets were restated as of January 1, 2022, for the correction of the error. This finding is a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting.
Recommendation: We recommend that Reporting Area YMCA improve its controls over financial reporting to prevent, detect and correct material misstatements of the financial statements on a timely basis.
Finding 2022-002: Revenue Recognition
Criteria: Generally accepted accounting principles require contributions and grants to be recognized when cash, securities, or other assets, or unconditional promise to give is received. Unless a contribution has both a right of
return/release and a measurable barrier that must be overcome in order to be entitled to the funds, it must be recorded upon receipt of the cash.
Condition: The Organization recorded various contributions and grants as deferred revenue that should have been recognized as revenue totaling approximately $300,000.
Cause: There are certain procedures not in place to analyze the various types of contributions and grant agreements for proper recording.
Effect or Potential Effect: Contributions and grant revenue were materially understated before a correcting audit adjustment was made.
Recommendation: We recommend policies and procedures be implemented that include a review of all new grant agreements by management to determine the proper accounting treatment based on the type of grant received,
before recording in the financial statements.
Finding 2022-003: Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards presentation
Criteria: 2 CFR §200.510 Financial Statements, (b) states that the auditee must prepare a schedule of expenditures of federal awards for the period covered by the auditee's financial statements which must include the
total Federal awards expended. At a minimum, the schedule must: (1) list individual Federal Programs by Federal agency, (2) for Federal awards received as a subrecipient, the name of the pass-through entity and identifying
number assigned by the pass-through entity must be included, (3) provide total Federal awards expended for each individual Federal program and the CFDA number or other identifying number when the CFDA information is not
available, (4) Include the total amount provided to subrecipients from each Federal program, (5) for loan or loan guarantee programs identify in the notes to the schedule the balances outstanding at the end of the audit period.
Also the Compliance Supplement identifies that: "Transfers of Federal awards to another component of the same auditee under 2 CFR part 200, subpart F, do not constitute a subrecipient or contractor relationship".
Condition: The Organization provided unadjusted balance for expenditures of federal awards for the year ended December 31, 2022 for audit purposes.
Cause: There are certain procedures not in place to analyze the expenditures incurred for proper presentation by program.
Effect or Potential Effect: Expenditures of federal awards were overstated before correcting reclassifications and adjustments were made.
Recommendation: We recommend policies and procedures be implemented that include a review of all expenditures of federal awards by management to determine the proper reporting by program and proper
accounting period treatment based on the type of expense incurred, before presentation in the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards.

Finding 2022-004: Writing internal control policies and procedures
Criteria: As stated in Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (the Uniform Guidance), § 200.303 Internal controls,
“the non-Federal entity must: (a) Establish and maintain effective internal control over the Federal award that provides reasonable assurance that the non-Federal entity is managing the Federal award in compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and
the terms and conditions of the Federal award. These internal controls should be in compliance with guidance in “Standards for Internal Control in the Federal Government” issued by the Comptroller General of the United
States or the “Internal Control Integrated Framework”, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). (b) Comply with the U.S. Constitution, Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal awards.”
Condition: At the initial phase of the audit procedures for the year ended December 31, 2022, YMCA management has not readily available the written internal control procedures and policies.
Cause: The YMCA has not readily available the written internal control procedures and policies that summaries the monitoring and supervision of the compliance of the internal controls over the Federal awards in compliance
with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal awards.
Effect or Potential Effect: Failure to meet the requirement of written internal control and procedures could be considered by the grantor and the pass-through entity as a noncompliance with the above-mentioned criteria and
could lead to administrative sanctions.
Recommendation: We recommend YMCA's management to expand written evidence over its internal control procedures in order to provide adequate evidence to ascertain that the procedures are performed as required.
