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 adjustment 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 Organization has elected not to use the 10 percent de minimis indirect cost rate allowed under the Uniform Guidance. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the Schedule) includes the federal awards activity of Special Olympics Indiana, Inc. (the Organization) and under a program of the federal government for the year ended June 30, 2024. The accompanying notes are an integral part of the Schedule. 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.

Finding Details

Finding 2024-001
2024-001: Allowable Costs Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Education Federal Program Name: Special Education – Special Olympics Education Programs Assistance Listing Number: 84.380W Pass-Through Agency: Special Olympics, Inc. Pass-Through Numbers: Y-16-24-800-12, Y-16-24-800-13 Award Period: January 1, 2024 – December 31, 2024 Type of Finding: • Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Over Compliance • Other Matters Criteria or Specific Requirement: The Compliance Supplement requires that compensation for personal services be charged to the federal grant based upon approved actual time worked on the program and not based on an allocation or budget (2 CFR 200.430(i)). Condition: While performing audit procedures, it was noted that in one (1) of the eight (8) payroll expenses tested, wages charged to the grant did not match underlying payroll records. Questioned Costs: $101 Context: During the process of obtaining an understanding of internal controls and processing of payroll expenditures, we noted an instance where payroll was not charged to the grants based upon approved actual time spent in the program. Cause: Clerical error in summarizing grant expenditures. Effect: The Organization has not fully followed compliance attributes with the allowable costs principles set forth by the Compliance Supplement related to salary expenditures charged to a program. Personnel need to reinforce policies and control procedures to ensure salaries charged to a grant are appropriately based on actual approved time worked in a program. Repeat Finding: No Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization ensure policies and procedures for reviewing and approving payroll expenditures for grant programs be strengthened to ensure mathematically accuracy. Views of Responsible Officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding.
