Finding Details

Finding 2022-001 ? EXCESS FUND BALANCE IN FOOD SERVICE FUND Type: Material Weakness in Internal Control / Noncompliance ? Special Tests and Provisions Program: Child Nutrition Cluster (ALN 10.553, 10.555 and 10.559) Condition: As of year-end the District had a fund balance in the non-profit food service fund in excess of three months? operating expenses by approximately $85,951. Criteria: The USDA requires that the District limit its net cash resources to an amount that does not exceed 3 months average expenditures of the non-profit food service fund per requirements in 7 CFR Part 210.14(b). Cause: This condition was caused by the meal claims increasing and having more reimbursements come in than anticipated. Effect: The District will be required to develop a spending plan for reducing the balance to an acceptable level during the following school year. The plan must be submitted to MDE, Office of School Support Services, for prior approval. Recommendation: We recommend that the District develop a spending plan as required by MDE, and submit the plan at their earliest convenience. Management?s Resp: We are in agreement with this finding. The district is now working on a spend down plan to enhance the Food Service Program.
Finding 2022-002 ? REPORTING (repeat finding) Type: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control / Noncompliance ? Reporting Program: Child Nutrition Cluster (ALN 10.553, 10.555 and 10.559) Condition: Meals claimed were not supported by count sheets for either breakfast or lunch for the two months meals were tested prior to MDE site visit. Criteria: The District is required to claim meals served, by category, based on reports provided from individual meal serve counts. Cause: This condition was caused by an insufficient internal control process for review of supporting documentation of meal counts to be used for meal claims. Effect: Based on a comparison of meals claimed to reports provided from individual meal serve counts, the District has underclaimed reimbursement for the year by an immaterial amount. Questioned Costs: None. Recommendation: We recommend that the District review their process of meal claims and make necessary changes to ensure that all meals claimed, by category, agree to supporting documentation. Management?s Resp: We are in agreement with this finding.
