Notes to SEFA

Accounting Policies: Expenditures reported on the schedule of expenditures of federal awards are reported on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Such expenditures are recognized following, as applicable, either the cost principles of OMB Circular A-122, Cost Principles for Non-Profit Organizations, or the cost principles contained in Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements of Federal Awards, wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to reimbursement. De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: For purposes of charging indirect costs to deferral awards, the Center has not elected to use the 10 percent de minimus cost rate as permitted by section 200.414 of the Uniform Guidance

Finding Details

Criteria: According to 2 CFR 200.512, the Single Audit report must be submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within 30 days of the completion of the audit, but no later than nine months after the end of the audit period. The failure to comply with this requirement constitutes noncompliance with federal regulations. Condition: During our audit of the Center for the year ending December 31, 2023, it was noted that the Uniform Guidance report, specifically the Single Audit report, was not filed within the required time frame. The report, which was due on September 30, 2024, was submitted on December 20, 2024. Cause: The late filing of the Uniform Guidance report was due to insufficient internal controls and delays in production of audit requests. Effect: The late submission of the report resulted in noncompliance with federal reporting requirements under the Uniform Guidance, which could have implications for future funding, as well as increased risk of audit scrutiny. This delay also impacted the timeliness of the Federal Audit Clearinghouse’s ability to review and process the report, potentially delaying subsequent funding releases or audits. Recommendation: We recommend that the Center implement stronger internal controls to ensure that reporting deadlines are effectively monitored and met. This may include: - Developing and maintaining a reporting calendar with clearly defined deadlines for financial reporting. - Assigning responsibility for tracking and ensuring timely submission of reports. Additionally, we suggest that the organization conduct a root cause analysis to address any underlying issues and implement corrective actions to prevent future delays. Management Response: Management agrees with the finding and will implement processes to mitigate the risk of future late file reports.
