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. Negative amounts shown on the Schedule represent adjustments or credits made in the normal course of business to amounts reported as expenditures in prior years. De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: Boys & Girls Clubs of Benton and Franklin Counties has not elected to use the 10% de minimis indirect cost rate. The schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the Schedule) includes the federal award activity of Boys & Girls Clubs of Benton and Franklin Counties under programs of the federal government for the year ended August 31, 2024. The information in this Schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of 2 CFR Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance).

Condition: Time sheets did not indicate the project/grant the employee worked on for the pay period to support allocation to the grant. Payroll costs charged to the grant during the award period were charged at 50% and were not allocated based on the employee’s time spent working in the programs. The allocation of 50% was not supported by the Club’s records. Questioned costs: None. Context: For the payroll transactions selected for testing, all 27 payroll transactions were not supported by time and effort records which agreed to the 50% allocation rate. Cause: All activities conducted by the employee’s being charged to the grant are considered allowable costs and allowable activities to the grant, and as such, allocation was not tracked and documented during the audit period.Effect: Payroll costs were not charged to the program based on time and effort. Repeat finding: Not a repeat finding. Recommendation: We recommend time spent on the Child Care Development Block Grant be coded to a unique project code in order to ensure time and effort is properly identified and tracked for the program. We also recommend the Club retain support for the allocation rates used and approval of the allocation. Views of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding.
