Notes to SEFA

Title: Basis of Presentation Accounting Policies: Expenditures reported on the SEFA are reported on the modified accrual basis of accounting. Such expenditures are recognized following, as applicable, either the cost principles contained in the Uniform Guidance, wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to reimbursement. Negative amounts, if any, shown on the Schedule represent adjustments or credits made in the normal course of business to amounts reported as expenditures in prior years. The expenditures are recorded upon the disbursement of funds that meet federal award requirements. De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: The City has elected not to use the 10 percent de minimis indirect cost rate allowed under the Uniform Guidance. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards (SEFA) includes the federal award activity of the City under programs of the federal government for the year ended June 30, 2023. The information in this SEFA 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).

Finding Details

Criteria: In order to comply with filing of reports with the Oklahoma State Auditor and Inspector (State Auditor), management needs to appropriately monitor the timing of the submission of the filing of the audit report within six months after the end of the fiscal year. Additionally, the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) submission should occur the earlier of nine months subsequent to year end or 30 days from report issuance. Condition: The City did not submit its audit report to the State Auditor prior to the deadline of six months after the end of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023. Additionally, the City did not submit its audit report to the FAC within nine months from year ending June 30, 2023. Cause and Effect: A change in key personnel over the City’s financial reporting and a natural disaster which occurred after year end resulted in a delayed financial reporting close out of fiscal year 2023. As a result, the City was not in compliance with its required deadline to provide the State Auditor and the FAC with its issued audit report within the established deadlines. Recommendation: We recommend the internal controls for reporting with the State Auditor and FAC be reviewed to ensure that future filings are completed within the established deadlines. Management Response: Management recognizes the need to submit its single audit reports to the State Auditor and FAC in accordance with the required deadlines in order to remain compliant with requirements. Management will make an effort to correct their timeliness and file within the appropriate deadlines going forward.
