Finding Details

Section III - Federal Awards Findings and Questioned Costs Finding 2023-002 Inaccurate Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards ("SEFA") (Material Weakness) Assistance Listing Number 14.157 - Supportive Housing for the Elderly (Section 202) Compliance requirements: Reporting Criteria: In accordance with 2 CFR part 200, Subpart F, the Organization is required to prepare a SEFA for the period covered by the auditee's consolidated and combined financial statements. At a minimum, the schedule shall:  List all individual Federal programs by Federal agency.  Include the name of the pass-through entity and the identifying number assigned by the passthrough entity for all Federal funds expended as a subrecipient.  Provide the total Federal awards expended for each individual Federal program and the Assistance Listing Number or other identifying number when the Assistance Listing Number information is not available.  Identify to the extent practical, the total amount provided to subrecipients from each Federal program for Federal awards received as a pass-through entity.  The Organization's processes over identifying federally funded grants and confirming federal funds did not include Federal loans, which resulted in delays in preparing a complete SEFA. Condition: During our testing, we noted that the Organization did not properly identify federal funding and applicable reporting requirements. Cause: Internal controls over the accurate preparation and completeness of the SEFA were not operating effectively or in a timely manner. Effect of potential effect: Improper SEFA and delays in identifying whether an award is federally funded could result in errors in accounting, disallowed costs, and noncompliance with Uniform Guidance requirements. Identification as a repeat finding: No. Questioned costs: $0. Context: Management did not provide a timely and complete SEFA as supporting documentation for the reporting requirements. Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization strengthen its policies and procedures for the identification of Federal awards and ensure preparation of a complete and accurate SEFA is performed in a timely manner and in accordance with the requirements of Office of Management and Budget. Views of responsible officials: Management is in the process of implementing compliance procedures that include obtaining confirmation from the federal agencies to ensure the complete and accurate preparation and presentation of the SEFA.
