Notes to SEFA

Title: Basis of Presentation Accounting Policies: 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. 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: The auditee did not use the de minimis cost rate. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the Schedule) includes the federal grant activity of New York Blood Center, Inc. (the Organization), under programs of the federal government for the year ended December 31, 2022. The information in the 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 Organization, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net assets or cash flows of the Organization.

Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance and Other Matters Criteria or specific requirement: 2 CFR Part 200.303 (a) states that a non-federal entity must establish and maintain effective control over federal award that provides reasonable assurance that the non-federal entity is managing the federal award in compliance with federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the federal award. Condition: During our testing of cash management in fiscal year 2021 audit, it was noted that there was a drawdown done in the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 that related to 2021 expenditures for which $1,090,780 was overdrawn (ALN: 93.847). Additionally, it was noted that there was no review done for the drawdown done of the first quarter of 2022 expenditures (All ALNs). Questioned costs: None. Context: We noted that the last 2021 drawdown done in 2022 was overdrawn by $1,090,780. However, it was noted as a result of the auditors bringing it to management's attention, the Organization reached out to the National Institute of Health and returned the funds on August 8, 2022 (ALN: 93.847). Furthermore, the first drawdown for 2022 expenditures was not reviewed (All ALNs). Cause: The overdraw of the funds was due to a formula error in the Organization's spreadsheet. The review issue was caused by management not following their procedures to ensure that they review the allowable expenditures spreadsheet before drawdowns are made. Effect: There was an overdraw on the last quarter of 2021 expenditures of $1,090,780 that was returned to the grantor on August 8, 2022. As a result of no review performed on the first quarter of 2022 expenditures, there could be errors not caught before drawdown. Repeat finding: No Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization review their approval policy around cash management and ensure review is performed before drawdowns and that evidence of this review is retained. Views of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding.

Condition: During our testing of cash management in fiscal year 2021 audit, it was noted that there was a drawdown done in the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 that related to 2021 expenditures for which $1,090,780 was overdrawn (ALN: 93.847). Additionally, it was noted that there was no review done for the drawdown done of the first quarter of 2022 expenditures (All ALNs). Questioned costs: None. Context: We noted that the last 2021 drawdown done in 2022 was overdrawn by $1,090,780. However, it was noted as a result of the auditors bringing it to management's attention, the Organization reached out to the National Institute of Health and returned the funds on August 8, 2022 (ALN: 93.847). Furthermore, the first drawdown for 2022 expenditures was not reviewed (All ALNs). Cause: The overdraw of the funds was due to a formula error in the Organization's spreadsheet. The review issue was caused by management not following their procedures to ensure that they review the allowable expenditures spreadsheet before drawdowns are made. Effect: There was an overdraw on the last quarter of 2021 expenditures of $1,090,780 that was returned to the grantor on August 8, 2022. As a result of no review performed on the first quarter of 2022 expenditures, there could be errors not caught before drawdown. Repeat finding: No Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization review their approval policy around cash management and ensure review is performed before drawdowns and that evidence of this review is retained.

Context: We noted that the last 2021 drawdown done in 2022 was overdrawn by $1,090,780. However, it was noted as a result of the auditors bringing it to management's attention, the Organization reached out to the National Institute of Health and returned the funds on August 8, 2022 (ALN: 93.847). Furthermore, the first drawdown for 2022 expenditures was not reviewed (All ALNs). Cause: The overdraw of the funds was due to a formula error in the Organization's spreadsheet. The review issue was caused by management not following their procedures to ensure that they review the allowable expenditures spreadsheet before drawdowns are made. Effect: There was an overdraw on the last quarter of 2021 expenditures of $1,090,780 that was returned to the grantor on August 8, 2022. As a result of no review performed on the first quarter of 2022 expenditures, there could be errors not caught before drawdown. Repeat finding: No Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization review their approval policy around cash management and ensure review is performed before drawdowns and that evidence of this review is retained. Views of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding.

Condition: During our testing of cash management in fiscal year 2021 audit, it was noted that there was a drawdown done in the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 that related to 2021 expenditures for which $1,090,780 was overdrawn (ALN: 93.847). Additionally, it was noted that there was no review done for the drawdown done of the first quarter of 2022 expenditures (All ALNs). Questioned costs: None. Context: We noted that the last 2021 drawdown done in 2022 was overdrawn by $1,090,780. However, it was noted as a result of the auditors bringing it to management's attention, the Organization reached out to the National Institute of Health and returned the funds on August 8, 2022 (ALN: 93.847). Furthermore, the first drawdown for 2022 expenditures was not reviewed (All ALNs). Cause: The overdraw of the funds was due to a formula error in the Organization's spreadsheet. The review issue was caused by management not following their procedures to ensure that they review the allowable expenditures spreadsheet before drawdowns are made. Effect: There was an overdraw on the last quarter of 2021 expenditures of $1,090,780 that was returned to the grantor on August 8, 2022. As a result of no review performed on the first quarter of 2022 expenditures, there could be errors not caught before drawdown. Repeat finding: No Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization review their approval policy around cash management and ensure review is performed before drawdowns and that evidence of this review is retained. Views of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding.

Condition: During our testing of cash management in fiscal year 2021 audit, it was noted that there was a drawdown done in the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 that related to 2021 expenditures for which $1,090,780 was overdrawn (ALN: 93.847). Additionally, it was noted that there was no review done for the drawdown done of the first quarter of 2022 expenditures (All ALNs). Questioned costs: None. Context: We noted that the last 2021 drawdown done in 2022 was overdrawn by $1,090,780. However, it was noted as a result of the auditors bringing it to management's attention, the Organization reached out to the National Institute of Health and returned the funds on August 8, 2022 (ALN: 93.847). Furthermore, the first drawdown for 2022 expenditures was not reviewed (All ALNs). Cause: The overdraw of the funds was due to a formula error in the Organization's spreadsheet. The review issue was caused by management not following their procedures to ensure that they review the allowable expenditures spreadsheet before drawdowns are made. Effect: There was an overdraw on the last quarter of 2021 expenditures of $1,090,780 that was returned to the grantor on August 8, 2022. As a result of no review performed on the first quarter of 2022 expenditures, there could be errors not caught before drawdown.

Additionally, it was noted that there was no review done for the drawdown done of the first quarter of 2022 expenditures (All ALNs). Questioned costs: None. Context: We noted that the last 2021 drawdown done in 2022 was overdrawn by $1,090,780. However, it was noted as a result of the auditors bringing it to management's attention, the Organization reached out to the National Institute of Health and returned the funds on August 8, 2022 (ALN: 93.847). Furthermore, the first drawdown for 2022 expenditures was not reviewed (All ALNs). Cause: The overdraw of the funds was due to a formula error in the Organization's spreadsheet. The review issue was caused by management not following their procedures to ensure that they review the allowable expenditures spreadsheet before drawdowns are made. Effect: There was an overdraw on the last quarter of 2021 expenditures of $1,090,780 that was returned to the grantor on August 8, 2022. As a result of no review performed on the first quarter of 2022 expenditures, there could be errors not caught before drawdown. Repeat finding: No Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization review their approval policy around cash management and ensure review is performed before drawdowns and that evidence of this review is retained. Views of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding.

Condition: During our testing of cash management in fiscal year 2021 audit, it was noted that there was a drawdown done in the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 that related to 2021 expenditures for which $1,090,780 was overdrawn (ALN: 93.847). Additionally, it was noted that there was no review done for the drawdown done of the first quarter of 2022 expenditures (All ALNs). Questioned costs: None. Context: We noted that the last 2021 drawdown done in 2022 was overdrawn by $1,090,780. However, it was noted as a result of the auditors bringing it to management's attention, the Organization reached out to the National Institute of Health and returned the funds on August 8, 2022 (ALN: 93.847). Furthermore, the first drawdown for 2022 expenditures was not reviewed (All ALNs). Cause: The overdraw of the funds was due to a formula error in the Organization's spreadsheet. The review issue was caused by management not following their procedures to ensure that they review the allowable expenditures spreadsheet before drawdowns are made. Effect: There was an overdraw on the last quarter of 2021 expenditures of $1,090,780 that was returned to the grantor on August 8, 2022. As a result of no review performed on the first quarter of 2022 expenditures, there could be errors not caught before drawdown. Repeat finding: No Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization review their approval policy around cash management and ensure review is performed before drawdowns and that evidence of this review is retained. Views of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding.

Condition: During our testing of cash management in fiscal year 2021 audit, it was noted that there was a drawdown done in the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 that related to 2021 expenditures for which $1,090,780 was overdrawn (ALN: 93.847). Additionally, it was noted that there was no review done for the drawdown done of the first quarter of 2022 expenditures (All ALNs). Questioned costs: None. Context: We noted that the last 2021 drawdown done in 2022 was overdrawn by $1,090,780. However, it was noted as a result of the auditors bringing it to management's attention, the Organization reached out to the National Institute of Health and returned the funds on August 8, 2022 (ALN: 93.847). Furthermore, the first drawdown for 2022 expenditures was not reviewed (All ALNs). Cause: The overdraw of the funds was due to a formula error in the Organization's spreadsheet. The review issue was caused by management not following their procedures to ensure that they review the allowable expenditures spreadsheet before drawdowns are made. Effect: There was an overdraw on the last quarter of 2021 expenditures of $1,090,780 that was returned to the grantor on August 8, 2022. As a result of no review performed on the first quarter of 2022 expenditures, there could be errors not caught before drawdown.

Additionally, it was noted that there was no review done for the drawdown done of the first quarter of 2022 expenditures (All ALNs). Questioned costs: None. Context: We noted that the last 2021 drawdown done in 2022 was overdrawn by $1,090,780. However, it was noted as a result of the auditors bringing it to management's attention, the Organization reached out to the National Institute of Health and returned the funds on August 8, 2022 (ALN: 93.847). Furthermore, the first drawdown for 2022 expenditures was not reviewed (All ALNs). Cause: The overdraw of the funds was due to a formula error in the Organization's spreadsheet. The review issue was caused by management not following their procedures to ensure that they review the allowable expenditures spreadsheet before drawdowns are made. Effect: There was an overdraw on the last quarter of 2021 expenditures of $1,090,780 that was returned to the grantor on August 8, 2022. As a result of no review performed on the first quarter of 2022 expenditures, there could be errors not caught before drawdown. Repeat finding: No Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization review their approval policy around cash management and ensure review is performed before drawdowns and that evidence of this review is retained. Views of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding.

Condition: During our testing of cash management in fiscal year 2021 audit, it was noted that there was a drawdown done in the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 that related to 2021 expenditures for which $1,090,780 was overdrawn (ALN: 93.847). Additionally, it was noted that there was no review done for the drawdown done of the first quarter of 2022 expenditures (All ALNs). Questioned costs: None. Context: We noted that the last 2021 drawdown done in 2022 was overdrawn by $1,090,780. However, it was noted as a result of the auditors bringing it to management's attention, the Organization reached out to the National Institute of Health and returned the funds on August 8, 2022 (ALN: 93.847). Furthermore, the first drawdown for 2022 expenditures was not reviewed (All ALNs). Cause: The overdraw of the funds was due to a formula error in the Organization's spreadsheet. The review issue was caused by management not following their procedures to ensure that they review the allowable expenditures spreadsheet before drawdowns are made. Effect: There was an overdraw on the last quarter of 2021 expenditures of $1,090,780 that was returned to the grantor on August 8, 2022. As a result of no review performed on the first quarter of 2022 expenditures, there could be errors not caught before drawdown. Repeat finding: No Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization review their approval policy around cash management and ensure review is performed before drawdowns and that evidence of this review is retained. Views of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding.

Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance and Other Matters Criteria or specific requirement: 2 CFR Part 200.303 (a) states that a non-federal entity must establish and maintain effective control over federal award that provides reasonable assurance that the non-federal entity is managing the federal award in compliance with federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the federal award. Condition: During our testing of cash management in fiscal year 2021 audit, it was noted that there was a drawdown done in the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 that related to 2021 expenditures for which $1,090,780 was overdrawn (ALN: 93.847). Additionally, it was noted that there was no review done for the drawdown done of the first quarter of 2022 expenditures (All ALNs). Questioned costs: None. Context: We noted that the last 2021 drawdown done in 2022 was overdrawn by $1,090,780. However, it was noted as a result of the auditors bringing it to management's attention, the Organization reached out to the National Institute of Health and returned the funds on August 8, 2022 (ALN: 93.847). Furthermore, the first drawdown for 2022 expenditures was not reviewed (All ALNs). Cause: The overdraw of the funds was due to a formula error in the Organization's spreadsheet. The review issue was caused by management not following their procedures to ensure that they review the allowable expenditures spreadsheet before drawdowns are made. Effect: There was an overdraw on the last quarter of 2021 expenditures of $1,090,780 that was returned to the grantor on August 8, 2022. As a result of no review performed on the first quarter of 2022 expenditures, there could be errors not caught before drawdown. Repeat finding: No Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization review their approval policy around cash management and ensure review is performed before drawdowns and that evidence of this review is retained.
