Condition: Cost allocations for salaries and related expenses allocated across program activities were not supported by allocated amounts in timesheets.
Cause: Due to the transition of staff and accounting systems throughout the year, the Organization had inconsistent reconciliations of employee payroll to the vouchers submitted for awards.
Context: Cost allocations for salaries and related expenses allocated across program activities were not supported by allocated amounts in timesheets. Effect: Because the reconciliation process in place was not consistently followed to agree employee payroll reports to cost allocations, it is possible that an employee's time may be inappropriately allocated amongst functional activities, including federal award programs.

Condition: Certain expenses related to non-payroll transactions charged to the federal program did not have adequate support for the purchase or underlying expense in order to determine if the expense was allowable under the grant.

Condition: On the original SEFA provided for the audit, three grants were inaccurately listed with the incorrect assistance listing number and two additional grants were inaccurately included on the schedule. This resulted in a restatement of the SEFA.
Cause: Due to staff turnover, the staff preparing the SEFA were unaware of the specifics of some individual grants.
Effect: SEFA was inaccurate.
Recommendation: The Organization should put controls in place over the preparation and review of the SEFA including agreeing line items to underlying grant agreements to ensure that only (and all) federal expenditures are included.

Cause: Due to the transition of staff and accounting systems throughout the year, the Organization had inconsistent maintenance of accounting records.
Context: For 27 of the 27 reports selected for testing across all programs, the Organization was unable to provide documentation of the review and approval by the Program Director.
Effect: A lack of oversight by the Program Director could result in material misstatements of the reports submitted to funders.
Recommendation: Documentation should be maintained of the controls conducted by the Organization.

Condition: Cost allocations for salaries and related expenses allocated across program activities were not supported by allocated amounts in timesheets.
Cause: Due to the transition of staff and accounting systems throughout the year, the Organization had inconsistent reconciliations of employee payroll to the vouchers submitted for awards.
Context: Cost allocations for salaries and related expenses allocated across program activities were not supported by allocated amounts in timesheets. Effect: Because the reconciliation process in place was not consistently followed to agree employee payroll reports to cost allocations, it is possible that an employee's time may be inappropriately allocated amongst functional activities, including federal award programs.
Recommendation:Procedures should be consistently applied requiring the reconciliation of submitted payroll reports to the employees' actual costs allocated and charged to federal and other programs.

Condition: Cost allocations for non-payroll and related expenses allocated across program activities, including federal award programs, were not supported as being approved by the Program
Cause: Due to the transition of staff and accounting systems throughout the year, the Organization had inconsistent documentation of Program Director approval of expenditures charged to federal programs.
Context: For 59 of the 138 non payroll expenditures selected for testing across all programs, the Organization was unable to provide documentation of the review and approval by the Program Director.
Effect: Because the process for documenting program director approval of expenses not consistently followed, it is possible that unallowable costs or activities may be inappropriately allocated amongst functional activities, including federal award programs.

Condition: Certain expenses related to non-payroll transactions charged to the federal program did not have adequate support for the purchase or underlying expense in order to determine if the expense was allowable under the grant.

Cause: Due to the transition of staff and accounting systems throughout the year, the Organization had inconsistent reconciliations and documentation of expenditures charged to federal programs.
Context: For 7 of the 100 non payroll expenditures selected for testing across all programs, the Organization was unable to provide supporting documentation for the expense.

Condition: On the original SEFA provided for the audit, three grants were inaccurately listed with the incorrect assistance listing number and two additional grants were inaccurately included on the schedule. This resulted in a restatement of the SEFA.
Cause: Due to staff turnover, the staff preparing the SEFA were unaware of the specifics of some individual grants.
Effect: SEFA was inaccurate.
Recommendation: The Organization should put controls in place over the preparation and review of the SEFA including agreeing line items to underlying grant agreements to ensure that only (and all) federal expenditures are included.
