Notes to SEFA

Title: BASIS OF PRESENTATION Accounting Policies: Expenditures reported on the Schedule are reported on the accrual basis of accounting. Such expenditures are recognized following the cost principles contained in Uniform Guidance, wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to the reimbursement. Negative amounts shown on the Schedule represent adjustment or credits made in the normal course of business amounts reported as expenditures in prior years. De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: The Organization has not elected to use the De Minimis rate for indirect costs. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the “Schedule”) includes the federal award activity of GoggleWorks under programs of the federal government for the year ended December 31, 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 GoggleWorks, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net position, or cash flows of GoggleWorks.

Finding Details

2023-002 REPORTING - SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY Federal Program COVID-19 Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds - ALN 21.027 Criteria Per the Uniform Guidance 2 CFR 200.512, management is responsible for the preparation and submission of expenditure reports detailing costs allocated to specific federal grants, for each funding agency. Condition/Cause During the audit, we noted that the client submitted the same expenditure report to two different pass through agencies for federal funding received for a capital project. One of the grants did not include a reporting template and the overall costs of the project exceeded the total of grant funds allocated to the Organization. The Organization did not have proper controls in place to approve and allocate specific costs to each of the agencies through the reporting process. Effect The report submitted to the funding agency had incorrect costs included. Questioned Costs None. Context We examined the monthly reports submitted to two of the local government funders and noted the same expenses were reported to both funding agencies. The Organization submitted revised reports to each funder which were approved prior to the end of the audit. Repeat Finding No. Recommendation The Organization should review and update policies and procedures, as needed, to ensure that appropriate procedures and controls are in place for properly reporting tracked costs to the funding agencies. This should include identifying the individual responsible for review and approval of expenditure reports to ensure that tracked costs are property reported to the funding agencies. Management Response See corrective action plan included in this report package.
