Notes to SEFA

Title: Note 3.Outstanding Loan Balances Accounting Policies: The schedule of expenditures of federal awards includes the federal grant activity of the West Virginia Public Transit Association (the Association).Expenditures reported on the schedule are reported on the cash basis of accounting and, accordingly, represent the total cash expended for the program. The schedule does not include transactions that might be included using the accrual basis of accounting as contemplated by generally accepted accounting principles. 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 Association has not elected to use the de minimis 10% indirect cost rate. At June 30, 2022, the Association had no outstanding loan balances requiring continuing disclosure.

Finding Details

Condition: The Association did not timely submit certain quarterly and final reports required by certain grant agreements to the grantor by the required submission due dates. Criteria: The Association?s grant agreements require quarterly reconciliation reports to be filed with the grantor 15 days after the conclusion of the quarter. For the year ended June 30, 2022 we noted 3 of the 4 reports due during the year were filed past the required 15 day due dates. Additionally, upon the conclusion of a grant, the Association?s grant agreements required the filing of a sworn statement of expenditures report, which was due within 15 days after the grant closed. For the year ended June 30, 2022, we tested the one required sworn statement of expenditures report that was required to be filed, which was filed past the required 15 day due date. Cause: The Association failed to timely file certain grant reporting documents that were tested during the audit prior to the submission deadlines for the year ended June 30, 2022. Effect: The Association was not in compliance with the requirements of their grant agreement. Questioned Costs: N/A Recommendation: We recommend the Association complete and submit all future required grant reports prior to the required deadline to ensure all compliance requirements are met. Views of Responsible Officials: Management concurs with the finding and has developed a plan to correct the finding.
Condition: For 2 of the 5 grant reports tested, management was unable to provide a reconciliation of key financial data from grant reporting filed with grantors and the underlying accounting records used to prepare the schedule of expenditures of financial awards. Criteria: To ensure accurate reporting information is provided to grantors, it should be reconciled to the schedule of expenditures of federal awards, and the underlying records used to prepare it. Cause: Appropriate reconciliation procedures have not been designed and implemented to demonstrate the accuracy of grant reporting. Effect: The Association is at an increased risk for grant reporting errors or omissions. Questioned Costs: N/A Recommendation: We recommend reconciling all reports submitted to the grantor to the underlying accounting records used to prepare the schedule of expenditures of federal awards. Views of Responsible Officials: Management concurs with the finding and has developed a plan to correct the finding.
Condition: The Association does not have appropriate supervisory review and approval procedures in the grant reporting function within the internal control framework. Criteria: Effective internal control over compliance includes appropriate, timely, and documented supervisory review and approval procedures. Cause: The grant reporting is prepared and submitted by the program manager without documented supervisory review and approval. Effect: The Association is at an increased risk for grant reporting errors or omissions without timely supervisory review and approval. Questioned Costs: N/A Recommendation: We recommend the Treasurer review and approve all future grant reports prior to their submission. The approval should be documented in writing. Views of Responsible Officials: Management concurs with the finding and has developed a plan to correct the finding.
Condition: The Association did not submit the Single Audit Reporting Package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse prior to the March 31, 2023 deadline. Criteria: Based on requirements set forth by 2 CFR section 200.512(a), the Association is required to submit the Single Audit Reporting Package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse by the earlier of thirty calendar days after receipt of the auditor's reports or nine months after the end of the audit period. Cause: The Association?s audit was not completed and submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse prior to the deadline for the year ended June 30, 2022. Effect: The Association was not in compliance with the requirements of 2 CFR section 200.512(a) regarding the timely submission of the Single Audit Reporting Package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. The effect will not allow the Association to be considered a low risk auditee for their next two annual Single Audits. Questioned Costs: N/A Recommendation: We recommend the Association complete and submit all future annual Single Audits to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse prior to the required deadline to ensure all compliance requirements are met. Views of Responsible Officials: Management concurs with the finding and has developed a plan to correct the finding.
