Notes to SEFA

Title: BASIS OF PRESENTATION Accounting Policies: All Federal grant operations of Prince George’s Community College (the College) are included in the scope of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (the Single Auditor or Uniform Guidance). The Single Audit was performed in accordance with the provisions of the OMB Compliance Supplement (the Compliance Supplement). Compliance testing of all requirements subject to audit, as described in the Compliance Supplement, was performed for the grant programs noted below. These programs represent Federal award programs for fiscal year 2023 with cash and non-cash expenditures to ensure coverage of at least 20% of Federally granted funds. Actual coverage was 88% of total cash and non-cash Federal award program expenditures. Expenditures reported on the schedule of expenditures of Federal awards (the Schedule) are recognized following the cost principles contained in the Uniform Guidance, wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to reimbursement. De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: The College has elected not to use the 10-percent de minimis indirect cost rate as allowed under the Uniform Guidance. The accompanying Schedule includes the Federal award activity of the College under programs of the Federal government for the year ended June 30, 2023, and is presented on the accrual basis of accounting. The information in this Schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of Uniform Guidance.

De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: The College has elected not to use the 10-percent de minimis indirect cost rate as allowed under the Uniform Guidance. During the year ended June 30, 2023, the College processed the following amount of new loans under the Federal Direct Lending Loan Program. Since this program is administered by outside financial institutions, only the value of new loans made during the fiscal year relating to this program are considered current year expenditures in the schedule of expenditures of Federal awards. The outstanding balance of loans made in previous periods is not included as Federal awards expended because the lender accounts for the prior balances.

Finding Details

Condition: During the audit, we noted additional time needed by management to draft the financial statements and complete year-end closing journal entries. There was also a significant audit entry identified and required during the audit. Criteria: Entities must maintain an adequate system of internal controls over financial reporting to initiate, authorize, record, process and report financial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Cause: The College did not fully analyze all of its account balances during the year end close process and also experienced transition in a key management position at the end of fiscal year 2023. Effect: A significant adjusting entry was recorded to accurately state the financial statements, and there was a delay in completing the audit. Questioned Costs: None. Recommendation: We recommend that the College review its year-end closing process used for fiscal year 2023 and resolve its staffing in its financial position. This review would include reviewing the level of detail of the procedures and the roles of those responsible, considering expanding the steps in the checklist for clarity and ease of monitoring, as well revisiting the timeline and management of the timeline during the close process.
