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. De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: The Organization has elected not to use the 10-percent de minimis indirect cost rate as allowed under the Uniform Guidance. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the Schedule) includes the federal award activity of SEMCAC (the Organization) under programs of the federal government for the year ended September 30, 2024. The information in this 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 2024-001
Federal Agency: Various Assistance Listing Number: Multiple Compliance Requirement: Reporting Finding 2024-001: Submission of the Audit Reporting Package and Data Collection Form (Repeat of Finding 2023-001) Criteria: Per 2 CFR §200.510(b), the auditee must prepare a Schedule of Federal Awards (SEFA) for the period covered by the auditee’s financial statements. Per §200.512(a), the SEFA must be submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) within the required deadline. Condition: The audit reporting package and data collection form for the year ended September 30, 2024, was not submitted to the FAC within the timeframe as required by the Uniform Guidance. Cause: The delay was due to a lack of capacity in the finance department and not following the year-end closing schedule. Effect: To qualify as a low-risk auditee, 2 CFR section 200.520 requires the audit reporting package and data collection form to be submitted to the FAC by the due date for each of the previous two years. Late filing will result in noncompliance with timely submission of financial information to the grantor agencies. Recommendation: Management should address the lack of capacity in the finance department and monitor the year-end closing schedule for a timely audit reporting package and data collection form to ensure compliance with federal deadlines. Questioned costs: None Responsible Official's Response: We agree with the auditors’ comments, and the following action will be taken to improve the situation. At the beginning of fiscal year 2025 we have added capacity to the finance department by one full-time employee. Semcac has also contracted with an outsourcing accounting firm to enhance and improve our internal controls, processes, and procedures to ensure we both follow our year-end closing schedule and provide a timely audit reporting package.
