Notes to SEFA

Title: 2023-2 Oversight Responsibilites and Enforcement of Accountability Accounting Policies: The modified accrual basis of accounting, with the exception of the National School Lunch Program, National School Breakfast Program and the Food Distribution Program (Non-Cash Assistance). Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenue is recognized in the accounting period in which it becomes available and measurable, and expenditures in the accounting period in which the fund liability is incurred, if measurable. Expenditures in the National School Lunch Program, National School Breakfast Program and the Food Distribution Program are not specifically attributable to this revenue source and are shown on the accompanying Schedule in an amount equal to revenue for balancing purposes only. The District values revenues and expenditures for the Food Distribution Program based on the value of commodities received. Grant funds are considered to be earned to the extent of expenditures made under the provisions of the grant. Accordingly, when such funds are received, they are recorded as due to other governments until related and authorized expenditures have been made. If balances have not been expended by the end of the project period, grantors may require the District to refund all or part of the unused amount. De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: Denver City Independent School District has not elected to use the 10 percent de minimis indirect cost rate as allowed under the Uniform Guidance. Criteria: Management should establish oversight responsibilities and enforce accountability for internal control procedures. Condition: There was a lack of clear responsibilities for oversight and ensuring that personnel are accountable for their internal control duties for most of the year. New personnel took over in July of 2023 and worked to get things back in control. Effect: Accounting processes can be performed incorrectly or not be performed entirely. Cause: Management being overwhelmed and not in control for the first 10 months of the year. Recommendation: New CFO and Superintendent have been hired and should be providing oversight of the internal control structure and hold personnel responsible3 for their duties. Management response/corrective action plan: See page 79.
Title: 2023-3: Monitoring Accounting Policies: The modified accrual basis of accounting, with the exception of the National School Lunch Program, National School Breakfast Program and the Food Distribution Program (Non-Cash Assistance). Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenue is recognized in the accounting period in which it becomes available and measurable, and expenditures in the accounting period in which the fund liability is incurred, if measurable. Expenditures in the National School Lunch Program, National School Breakfast Program and the Food Distribution Program are not specifically attributable to this revenue source and are shown on the accompanying Schedule in an amount equal to revenue for balancing purposes only. The District values revenues and expenditures for the Food Distribution Program based on the value of commodities received. Grant funds are considered to be earned to the extent of expenditures made under the provisions of the grant. Accordingly, when such funds are received, they are recorded as due to other governments until related and authorized expenditures have been made. If balances have not been expended by the end of the project period, grantors may require the District to refund all or part of the unused amount. De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: Denver City Independent School District has not elected to use the 10 percent de minimis indirect cost rate as allowed under the Uniform Guidance. Criteria: Management should establish monitoring activities to monitor internal control systems and evaluate results. Condition: Management failed to monitor certain functions within the internal control system for the first ten months of the year. Effect: Oversight was not provided and this resulted in bank reconciliations not done being completed in a timely manner. Cause: Management being overwhelmed and not in control for the first 10 months of the year. Recommendation: The CFO should have processes for monitoring internal controls and provide training to personnel as needed: Management response/corrective action plan: See page 79.
Title: 2023-4: Reconciliation of Cash Accounts Accounting Policies: The modified accrual basis of accounting, with the exception of the National School Lunch Program, National School Breakfast Program and the Food Distribution Program (Non-Cash Assistance). Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenue is recognized in the accounting period in which it becomes available and measurable, and expenditures in the accounting period in which the fund liability is incurred, if measurable. Expenditures in the National School Lunch Program, National School Breakfast Program and the Food Distribution Program are not specifically attributable to this revenue source and are shown on the accompanying Schedule in an amount equal to revenue for balancing purposes only. The District values revenues and expenditures for the Food Distribution Program based on the value of commodities received. Grant funds are considered to be earned to the extent of expenditures made under the provisions of the grant. Accordingly, when such funds are received, they are recorded as due to other governments until related and authorized expenditures have been made. If balances have not been expended by the end of the project period, grantors may require the District to refund all or part of the unused amount. De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: Denver City Independent School District has not elected to use the 10 percent de minimis indirect cost rate as allowed under the Uniform Guidance. Condition: Our testing in the area of cash disclosed that monthly reconciliations were not being performed accurately or timely for most of the year. The new personnel work diligently to get the bank accounts reconciled and up to date with the help of the Service Center. There were still unreconciled balances that were not identified. Effect: Accounting processes can be performed incorrectly or not be performed entirely. Recommendation: New CFO and Superintendent have been hired and together are working diiigently to get a starting point on the bank account and work forward. We recommend the District provide personnel training and processes to verify that all l accounts are reconciled to the general ledger monthly, and those reconciliations are properly reviewed and approved. Management response/corrective action plan: See page 79.
