Notes to SEFA

Title: Note 1 - Basis of Presentation Accounting Policies: Expenditures reported on the Schedule are reported on the modified accrual basis of accounting. Such expenditures 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 Sumter County Board of Education has not elected to use the 10-percent de minimis indirect cost rate as allowed in the Uniform Guidance. The accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (the “Schedule”) includes the federal award activity of the Sumter County Board of Education under programs of the federal government for the year ended September 30, 2023. The information in this Schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Because the Schedule presents only a selected portion of the operations of the Sumter County Board of Education, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position or changes in net position of the Sumter County Board of Education.

Finding Details

Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations, Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance), 2 CFR 200.430(i) outlines the standards for documenting personnel expenses. The current standards require that the distribution of an employee's salary or wages among specific activities or cost objectives must be supported by adequate documentation if the employee works on more than one federal award or a federal award and a non-federal award. While testing payroll expenditures coded to the Education Stabilization Fund, four instances were noted in which an employee's salary was allocated to the Education Stabilization Fund and to other programs, but no time and effort reports or other documentation were provided to document the time the employee spent working on a specific program. Controls were not in place to ensure that the Board maintained time and effort reports or other adequate documentation that supported the distribution of employees' salaries to the Education Stabilization Fund. As a result, the Board is not in compliance with Uniform Guidance as it pertains to the documentation required for personnel expenses charged to the Education Stabilization Fund.
