Notes to SEFA

Accounting Policies: The Redevelopment Authority of Allegheny County (the Authority) as the reporting entity for financial reporting purposes is defined in Note 1 to the Authority's basic financial statements. For purposes of preparing the schedule of expenditures of federal awards, the Authority's reporting entity is the same that was used for financial reporting. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards is presented using the modified accrual basis of accounting, which is described in Note 1 to the Authority's basic financial statements. The Authority did not use the 10% de minimis indirect cost rate. De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: The auditee did not use the de minimis cost rate.

Finding Details

Financial Statement Finds: Accounting Records Criteria: The accounts of the Authority should include all significant transactions in the period of benefit. Contion: During the audit, certain audit adjustments were required to record transactions in the period of benefit for the General Fund, Special Projects Fund, IMPAC, and CITF Fund. Effect: The financial records for the General Fund, Special Projects Fund, IMPAC, and CITF Fund did not reflect the financial activity in the period of benefit, which could result in a material misstatement of the financial statements. This is a repeat finding from a previous year – Finding 2023-001. Recommendation: The Authority should ensure that internal control procedures over financial reporting are sufficient to identify and record all transactions in the period of benefit. Management Response: The Authority has initiated additional levels of review in order to sufficiently identify and record all transactions in the period of benefit.
