Finding Details

U.S. Department of Education, COVID-19: Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Funds (ESSER) Assistance Listing Number 84.425D, 84.425U Equipment Management Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance Criteria: Capital expenditures for general and special purpose equipment purchases are subject to prior approval by ED or the pass-through entity. In addition, with prior approval by the ED or the passthrough entity, recipients and subrecipients may also use ESF funds to purchase real property, perform construction or minor remodeling, and for improvements to land, buildings, or equipment that meet the overall purpose of the ESF program, which is “to prevent, prepare for, and respond to” the COVID-19 pandemic. Condition: Two inventory items were improperly assigned (entered) in the inventory system for the ESSER funds that should have been charged to the general fund. Cause: The District does not appear have formal policies in place for ensuring the accuracy of all inventory purchases. Effect: Unallowable property items were assigned to the ESSER funds in the inventory system. Questioned costs: None reported. Context: Out of our sample of 60 items, 2 items should have been charged to the general fund instead of ESSER. Nonstatistical sampling was used. Repeat Finding From Prior Year: No Recommendation: The procedures should be updated to ensure that the costs charged to the program meet the requirements established by ESSER and the state department of education. Views of Responsible Officials: We agree with the finding.
