Notes to SEFA

Accounting Policies: The accompanying schedule of Expenditures of federal awards (the "Schedule") includes the federal award activity of the Commission 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 the Commission, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net position, or cash flows of the Commission. Expenditures reported on the Schedule are reported on the 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 Commission has elected to not use the 10-percent de minimis indirect cost rate as allowed under Uniform Guidance.

Finding Details

Finding 2023-002 Single Audit Report Filed Late Condition: The audited financial statements were not submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse by the due date of September 30, 2024. Questioned Costs: None Criteria: In accordance with 2 CFR Section 200.512, an entity expending more than $750,000 of federal funds within a fiscal year must submit the data collection form and reporting package by a due date that is the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor’s report(s) or nine months after the year end of the audit period. Cause: The late filing of the 2022 audit report led to a delayed start for the 2023 audit. As a result, the subsequent audit processes for the year ended December 31, 2023, were impacted, causing the filing for that audit to also be late. Effect: The Commission was not in compliance with Uniform Guidance, which could lead to sanctions by the funding agencies. Recommendation: We recommend the Commission establish a timely process to ensure completion of the audit by September 30 of each year. Views of Responsible Officials: Please refer to the Corrective Action Plan for management’s views and planned corrective action.
